Kosglow and Jensen Take Kirkwood Giant Slalom
Day One at Kirkwood ended the way most alpine events have so far this season. Colder temps, weary riders, and oh yeah, Lisa Kosglow atop the platform. She took her fourth gold of the season as Canadian Nelson Jenson claimed the men's top prize in the Giant Slalom.

Richards and Athena Win Kirkwood Halfpipe
Last year it was the Kirkwood half ditch. This year master shaper and second place finisher Frank Wells almost had it nailed down perfect. In the end, it was Todd Richards who walked away with the gold, even though he nearly missed out on his final run. DynoComm TV and some quick cash was all Todd needed make a protest and triumph.

Kirkwood 's Stormy BoarderCross
"There's really nothing there. It would be great if it was really difficult, but it's not. It's just a single track." descibed Jason Onley of Sunday's Snowy BoarderCross. Nearly ten inches fell up until racetime which slowed down the racing considerably. Still, Marguerite Cossettini and Dan Adams managed to find the best line on the way down and pick up the gold.

HP Brushie Smokes the Hunter Pipe
Jeff Brushie puffed away in the Hunter Mountain Halfpipe event. See how he did it and just why the awards presentation was the strangest we've seen in a while.

Hunter Mountain Pipe Dreams
When riders first arrived at Hunter Mountain the pipe they saw was probably the worst pipe built for a major competition. But Frank Wells showed up to fix all that. We're hoping he stays with the tour, in fact, someone should think about paying him <hint, hint>.


SL: Kosglow Sweeps, McClain Advances

GS: Archibald and Kosglow Go Really Fast
The course was bumpier than a Andes mountain road, but that didn't slow Jeff Archibald and Lisa Kosglow down one bit.
