Forget Parks, Rails and Pipes: Travis Rice To Host 17 of World's Best Snowboarders in Test of Skill on Natural Terrain 

Quiksilver, the leading brand in boardriding, today announced that the inaugural "Quiksilver Natural Selection: All-Mountain Freestyle Invitational at Jackson Hole" snowboarding event will be held from January 30 to February 5, 2008 in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. 

This innovative event is the brainchild of Quiksilver athlete and one of today's most versatile and accomplished snowboarders, Travis Rice, who envisioned a competition that removes the constructs of snow parks and half-pipes, and instead uses a natural-terrain course to bring out the best in riders' style and technique. 

Travis, who is also an avid filmmaker, has posted a personal video announcement about the event on Quiksilver's website: www.quiksilver.com/naturalselection
