Mirra Back on Top in Dew Tour Park

By: the full 20 inches

Dew Tour Park Podium
The Park Final went down today at the Dew Tour in Chicago, and it was a doozy. Despite taking it on a gnarly crash earlier in the day, Dave Mirra rallied to turn in an awesome first run that no one else could touch. He dropped his signature no-handed 360 flip and a clean 720 over the box, as well as a giant 540 and a flair whip over the kicker on the 10-foot quarter. Garrett Reynolds kept the heat on Dave with a totally different style, throwing a barspin-to-barspin 360 drop from the top of the course, a no-handed to late barspin 360, and a barspin to manual to no-hander. Marcus Tooker took third with a 360 whip to barspin, a 720 over the box backwards, and a perfect bikeflip.

McCann throws solid run of double front to double whip to earn gold

Unfortunately, one of the best riders to do it on the mega ramp and last year's champion, Chad Kagy, came down hard on his leg and would only complete a run worthy of third place earning him the bronze medal. This made the race for gold quite exciting, however, as it seemed to be anyone's game with Kagy only completing a "safety run" (a run to secure a solid score, usually as a first run, to allow for a back-up score in case of not landing more difficult runs).

And so that race..
