Terje Haakonsen’s big ol’ snowboard contest The Oakley Arctic Challenge, originally scheduled for January 2-3, 2010 has been officially postponed to March 5-7, 2010 because most snowboarders had other things going on of the weather, according to the T-A-C website.
So TAC choosed the safe option: Postponing the event to March. There are no other TTR 6 star events in the weekend of March 5 to 7. It is also right before the European X Games, and after the Olympics, suitable for the migration of riders from America to Europe. . . TAC hopes this opens up for riders that are now focusing totally on the Olympic event and qualification.
Makes us kind of wonder what they thought people were going to be doing during an Olympic year.
