Sub Zero Skim Jam: Presented by SkimBC.com
Introduction:
SkimBC is proud to announce the Third Annual Sub Zero Skim Jam, building on two previous successful contests. The two-day event will take place on the 13th and 14th of March, in Port Renfrew, British Columbia. Port Renfrew is the pilgrimage made by skimboarders from all over British Columbia, as the location is within close proximity of Victoria (80 kilometer), British Columbia’s capital; while delivering sizable shorebreak. The event admission is $40 per person, which includes the skimboarding event, the after party, and accommodation at the Big Fish Lodge.
The Competition:
Day 1. Seeding: Rider’s will be assigned to heats randomly. The number of heats that each rider competes in will by dictated by the number of riders who compete and the wave conditions.
Day 2. Semi-finals/Finals: Riders will be seeded based on Day 1 results. Every rider will compete in at least one heat. A wildcard round may occur if there is not an even number of riders.
Conditions:
Mystic Beach, another local break, will act as a backup location if the conditions in Port Renfrew are not suitable for competition. The decision to change will be made by event directors.
Accommodation and After Party:
On Saturday, March 13th Big Fish Lodge will host the ‘Boogie Down After Party’. Victoria’s own Sunhawk will be performing. The $40 entry fee covers accommodation and party admission, there will be beds for 36 people and lots of room for people on the floor… For those who are interested, camping is available on premise as well.
Purchasing Tickets:
Tickets can be purchased online at SkimBC.com or at the event. When you purchase your ticket/admission to the event it will simply populate our guest list, please bring your receipt to the event as it will act as your ticket. Also, please indicate whether you are planning on skimboarding at the event so that we can begin to assign heats.

Hey,
I can’t get the “purchase tickets here” link to work so I thought that would let you know that I am coming for the contest. I will be camping in my van so more space for others in the lodge. I will be spending the night of the 12th in Sooke and then heading up Sat morning. What time does it start? I also don’t know exactly where to go once in PR.
3.5 years with a fractured ankle from skimming Dreamland, Bali has had me sidelined for a long time. The ankle is still broken but am going to come anyways. I can’t wait to hit this up.
Thanks, and see you soon.
