We’re not the biggest fans of the super-extreme RedBull thrill-fests, however, the Snowscrapers event is looking pretty legit, especially since Fuel TV is going to webcast it live and in HD this Thursday afternoon.

On Thursday, February 5th, 17 of the world’s best snowboarders will compete in New York City for their piece of the massive $100,000 prize purse at Red Bull Snowscrapers. Riders will rip against the majestic backdrop of the NYC skyline in the East River Park from 6-9 pm and it’s all being webcast live in HD on FUEL.TV. Don’t miss this one!

Plus, if it’s on the web and in HD, we’ll pretty much watch anything.

Will be interesting to see if they can handle the bandwidth of a live stream in HD. My guess is no- live streaming is hard enough (not to mention expensive) in reg def. I believe this will be Fuel’s first test too, since Mav’s hasn’t gone off yet. I wonder who they are using for a CDN on this.
