CALLING ALL THOSE LOOKING TO GET HELLA HECTIC!Hella Hectic is the evolution of a classic ski and snowboard cross event. We reimagined the course seen at resorts around the globe and restructured the competitive divisions; from Men’s and Women’s Snowboarders and Skiers to Adaptive heats and even a whole division dedicated to Teams.Competitors will face off in heats of 4 riders on a course full of banked turns, rollers, drops and step-ups. Winner takes all in each division, with a pond skim finish line to seal the victory!It will be fast, competitive, and most important… HECTIC!With a $35K prize purse on the line, make sure you’re waxed up and ready to rip. It all goes down April 23rd at Copper Mountain, Colorado. Let’s get Hectic and hopefully stay dry!Spectators welcome to watch up close next to the pond skim and alongside the course.

Brought to you by Ivywild School Events, Independent Film Society of Colorado, and Wiseau-Films. Doors open 6:30pm. FREE admission, donations appreciated. THE ROOM (2003, rated R, 1h 39m)
A successful banker’s (Tommy Wiseau) fiancee (Juliette Danielle) tempts and manipulates his best friend (Greg Sestero).
Writer/Director/Producer/Star: Tommy WiseauPRESS:
“The Room is the quintessential cult film, one whose excess and eccentricities become the cinematic equivalent of an alien trying and failing to assimilate among humans. But it’s also a film that’s genuinely mesmerizing, that earns each of its repeat viewings.” – Vox.com
“A bona fide classic of midnight cinema, Tommy Wiseau’s misguided masterpiece subverts the rules of filmmaking with a boundless enthusiasm that renders such mundanities as acting, screenwriting, and cinematography utterly irrelevant. You will never see a football the same way again.” – Rottentomatoes.com
“To make a movie that’s so bad it’s good you need vision, drive, luck and obsessive vanity. Fortuitously, The Room’s writer/producer/director/star Tommy Wiseau appears to possess all of these qualities, combined with a total lack of acting talent.” – Steve Rose, Guardian
“If there is a 21st-century Edward D. Wood Jr., it is probably Tommy Wiseau.” – Jason Bailey, Flavorwire
