Yesterday saw the finals of the slopestyle event. The snow was coming down pretty heavily coating features. The riders still charged the course, but some were thrown off the slick conditions and suffered lower scores for it. Slopestyle veterans Chas Guldemond and Mark McMorris sent less than stellar runs and getting enough speed was clearly an issue for many of the riders.
Seb Touts commented: "It was tough conditions today since it was snowing and the speed was really bad. The first run I put down wasn’t a perfect run, but at least I got an 85.50 to help me hold onto second place. I missed my second rail on the second run, but it’s all good because with two second places I’m first on the overall Dew Tour.” (Allisports.com) Seb scored second yesterday and Justin Morgan scored third with an 80.25.
Eric Willett took first again, stomping the competition and the course at Killington. Willett Scored a 91 with a front 270 on the down rail, gap front lip 270 out on the gap down, front board switchout on the cannon into a a switch back 10 double, cab 9 double, and finishing out on a front 10 double on the three jumps.
Today is the last day of the Dew Tour at Killington and the much awaited Snowboard Superpipe Final. Big hitters like Jack and Luke Mitrani, Scott Lago, Louie Vito, Danny Davis and I Pod will be coming out and will no doubt be busting out some huge air and big spins. We'll see if Matt Ladley will continue to dominate the pipe like he has the past few days, it's definitely going to be some great competition! If you can't be there in person watch it live on NBC.
