In France they've hooked up The Betty Jam in the French Pyreenes - plus the Freestyle Invitational and Happy Hours in Meribel. Check the flyers after the jump for more details...

Loved the
TTR's warm up, qualifications and finals videos from the
Roxy Chicken Jam Europe 2010 in Saalbach Hinterglem but felt that you only saw a flash of actual snowboarding? After years of being frustrated by the lack of footage available online, the
TTR have cottoned on and released the full runs from the all-female contest's finals.
There's a video each from
Kjersti Ostgaard Buaas,
Cheryl Maas and
Enni Rukajärvi - all riding smooth through the Austrian resort's night park, plus a pretty amusing behind the scenes skit from visiting californian
Oakley rider
Chanelle Sladics, which is pretty
You've Been Framed worthy.
Watch the video trio in full after the jump...

From January 8 to 10, global female pro snowboarders will be shredding the night park in
Saalbach Hinterglem for the jam's seventh edition. It's a big change from the glacier location of
Kaprun, Austria of recent years - which, with the event being held early season often suffered from lack of snow or high winds, and the high altitude meant spectator numbers were often small - this year the park is just 200 metres away from the village.
