the winter games happens every two years. in 2011 Gus won pipe and slope with Jossi in second in both. Devin Logan won both pipe and slope. Joss Christensen won big air but there is no big air this time round.
 
Thank you! I'm stoked Devin made it into finals since this is her 1st competition since wrecking her knee. I have high hopes for her. Also stoked Jamie Crane Mauzy advanced to finals!!
 
Conditions were fog and 25mph winds.

Both comps called after 1 run.

girls:

1. Devin

2. Angeli Van Laanen

3. Mirjam Jaeger

guys:

1. AjJ Kemppainen

2.Aaron Blunck

3. Taylor Seaton

I wonder if the AFP could retroactively change the rating of the contest considering it was cut short and the conditions.
 
Yea conditions looked horrible!! Congrats to all!! Super stoked for Devins win!Way to come back strong!
 
I'm late posting this so it's old news by now. I was out of town and had to watch the Live Stream from my cell which was a bummer. Anyway, here's the results from the slopestyle qualifiers posted by SBC Skier site. I'm super stoked to see how well Willie Borm did!! Also the youngster Maggie Voisin! Awesome to see how strong Devin Logan's return is after her blown out knee last summer!

Looking forward to the Finals on Sunday, which is tomorrow some time here in the states. Hoping for another nice day!

That's what I was wondering?? I don't know why else he didn't take his second run. Anyone know?
 
Yeah Dorey fell after first hit, he compressed in the transition and washed out in the flats, looked a bit sore on his wrist maybe (not sure), could be why he didn't take a second run. Shame both he and Riddle crashed out.
