JUMP Party Wrap
(Words by Vanessa Pierce, Photos by Ki Kopkau)
This was not your typical ski movie premiere…
Imagine an evening where you are dared to challenge yourself in hand stand and pogo sticking competitions, swag giveaways hit you in the head, and you get to see the first public showing of Rage Productions’ “Down Days” documentary about big-mountain skiing in AK. But that’s not it: The party is emceed by pro skier Lynsey Dyer and proceeds go to her nonprofit, SheJumps, which inspires girls and women to participate in outdoor activities through mentorship and coaching from professional and recreational outdoor female athletes.
