2009 Winter Dew Tour slopestyle semi-finals



2009 Winter dew tour slopestyle semi-finals at breck went down with a bang today, mother nature cooperated bringing some real nice sunshine to the slope course. With 28 riders competing for 1 of the 10 spots in finals you know the riding is going to be insane. Norwegian rider Halldor Helgason set the bar with his first run scoring a solid 90.00. His jump line included a switch back 9, back 7 into a front 10 double cork. Following him into finals was Chas Guldemond scoring a 89.00 he did switch back 9, front 7 and backside 1260. A few other stand outs where 16 year old Sage Kotsenburg who did cab 9, font 10 into a back ten double cork which put him into 3rd place going into finals, Breck local Eric Willett was almost heads up with Sage with his run of backside rodeo, switch back 9 to frontside 1080... It was a real treat to watch these guys ride and push the limits of the sport, watching practice I could tell that most of these guys were holding back a few special stunts for finals. Finals will be live on NBC so make sure you go to http://www.allisports.com for more information about the event.
