SFist Goes to Icer Air

On Saturday, we spent all day at AT&T park digging on the Esurance Icer Air 2006 . We have to admit that in terms of coolness, it wasn't quite up there with last year's event, but it more than made up for it in terms of things to do and things to see. There was skateboarding, snowboarding, ski jumping, bands, and all sorts of other cool things. And, it was all day. Even better, while ticket prices varied, you could get in and see everything you need to see for the low, low price of $10.

Can't beat that. Especially when it became pretty obvious that the best seat in the house were the cheap seats way up high. The view from there, pictured above, gave you the best vantage point in the whole stadium.

Did we mention there was ski/snow jumping at night? With a full moon? How cool is that?

More photos after the jump.

A skier comes in mid-air

There was a gap in the middle of the jump where the tricks began. Here's a skier in mid air.

How the set up looked from straight on.

That dot in green? Tony Hawk. We wish we could have gotten a better shot, but there was a mad rush the moment he was introduced.

Jurassic 5 rocks the house with a full moon behind them.
