Every year, FREESKIER and Bud Light come together in Breckenridge in early December to throw a party that celebrates one of the best parts of mountain town living: the nightlife. This time around we brought the house down with live music from FREESKIER’s very own DJ Hawt Dogg, drink specials from Bud Light and plentiful gear giveaways, including a mountain-ready fat tire bicycle and two pairs of custom skis.
Athlete appearances from top players in the sport such as Jossi Wells, Tof Henry, Khai Krepela, Antti Ollila, Colter Hinchliffe, Sean Jordan, and industry figures like Armada’s Dan Villaire, Faction’s Dave Bottomley and Teton Gravity Research’s Todd Jones turned this party into more than just another night out on the town. Mingling alongside some of the most notable names in skiing, the crowd kept their energy high until last call rang in at 2AM and we had to say goodbye to Cecelia’s until next year’s Bud Light bash.
