Running a ski contest is hard.
During this break a fun little quarter pipe session broke out on the backside of the jump.
It was maybe just the riders trying to take their minds of hucking to flat.
$10,000 to the winner is a strong carrot to fight through problems like speed and weather, however.
These put him into third place.
Jake Mageau, AKA Mista Mango went really big all day long.
Some of his smaller spins were super stylish, too.
Nicky Keefer killed it with some classic stylish Keefer rodeos, and uncrossed mutes.
The trick that helped seal the victory was the double 12 bio, with its crazy downward facing rotations.
That is one wacky trick that not a lot of skiers can pull off.
Overall, it was a fun event.
It was also great to see Nicky Keefer take home the big check.
As for the conditions, it definitely put both organizers and skiers alike in a hard position.
In situations like this there’s no easy answer as to what to do.
Despite the difficulties, we saw some great skiing, and had a hella good time.
