The Freeski Superpipe battle between Tanner Hall and Simon Dumont came to an end last night with Tanner Hall emerging the victor winning the Freeski Superpipe Final and taking home the DEW CUP as well. Dumont's final run left him with a lingering smile at the base of the pipe, but not for long. Hall nailed his last run with a massive 1260, to a huge right 900, into an ally-oop flat 360 japan air and then a switch 900 with a grab. It was ridiculous! The crowd, athletes and announcers were going crazy. In the end Tanner scored a 93.75, Simon Dumont finished with a close 92.50 and Colby James West placed third with a 87.00. It was a great finish to the last Freeski Superpipe competition of the 2009 Winter Dew Tour!
Now, on to today. If you've listen to the weather report then you know it is slushing up here, but no worries! Throw on your waterproof duds (or a trash bag), trudge up here (no whining), and root on these amazing guys and gals as they rip the walls of the Superpipe for men's and women's Snowboard Superpipe Finals kicking off at 12pm. Then stick around for the awards ceremony it the Village from 4:30-5:30 this evening as these athletes take home their well deserved DEW CUPS!
