So this was my first ever big time half pipe event I've attended and it didnt dissapoint. Perfect pipe, perfect weather, and of course perfect riding from all the athletes. The girls killed it Angeli Van Laneen took it on the girls side throwing perfect 5's on both walls head high the whole way, with a nice cork 7 at the bottom to finish it off. As for the boys, Kevin Rolland came out swinging with a first hit Whiskey flip into giant 5 into giant 9 into giant flat oop 7. His training partner Xavier Bertoni claimed 2nd with an X-games'esq run ending with a crazy 1260 that didnt look like it was going to come around but somehow it did. 3rd was claimed by relative unknown Walter Wood! Good ole colorado native taking first hit 1260's at least 15ft out and ending with a competition first, a 1440!
props to all who threw it down, the crowd was more then stoked.
