The Dumont Cup

Sunday River
Newry, Maine
Simon Dumont will host the fourth Pro/AM Jam Competition - "The Dumont
Cup" - at his home mountain Sunday River Resort in Newry,
Maine March 23-24, 2012. A lifetime skier and fan of Sunday
River, the annual Dumont Cup is Simon's answer to providing
skiers country wide with a signature Pro/Am event. Simon and
his X-Game buddies will ski alongside, judge and hang with
the amateurs as the Ams vie for a spot in the Pro/Am Final.
With $20,000 up for grabs you'll see top X Games pros
working to hold their own against an amateur field that
gives them a run for their money. Tom Wallisch, Alex Schlopy
and Nick Goepper have been the cup winners over the last
three years - with NBC covering the event this year we'll
see who takes the top honors in 2012 in front of a national
audience.
