The Winter Dew Tour men's snowboard slopestyle finals were swept by some young Americans this weekend with all top three places being taken by riders from California, Utah, and Colorado. Mammoth Lakes native Tyler Flanagan took the top spot on the podium at only 16 years old with a score of 93.00 after originally being in the seventh place spot. He showed up with a Cab 900, massive back to back 1080's, and a clean set of rail tricks. Sage Kotsenburg hailing from Park City, UT came in second earning a 90.00 with a 900, a 1080 and a doublecork 1080 over the triple jump line followed by Breckenridge's Eric Willett with a final score of 87.50. Willett earned his spot with a huge doublecork 1080 and technical rail jibs.



Snowboarding's golden girl, Jamie Anderson, once again blew us away and came out on top of the podium. The South Lake Tahoe local earned a 92.00 which more than doubled half of her fellow competitor's scores. Jamie clinched first place by being the only female to land a full run with a backside 180, a switch backside 540, and a frontside 360. Her second run was about to top that with back to back 540's however, she slipped out on a 720 attempt. The battle for first was between her and Czech Republic's Sarka Panc, who ended up trailing after a run filled with boardslides, presses, a backside 540, and a switch backside 180. Who knows what would have happened if she had landed her smooth 720 over the third jump. Her score of an 80.25 put her in the number two spot. Coming in third place was Jenny Jones with a 67.50 even with falls on both runs.
