For the 2nd year now, Zoo York has been a partner in the Empire Shakedown, held on Mont Saint-Sauveur in Quebec, Canada. Shakedown is a pro snowboard contest, has been running for seven years, and is the biggest of its kind in Canada. 30 riders compete for prizes of 20,000$ as 25,000 raging spectators look on!!!
