Ski Slopestyle Finals- Winter Dew Tour

By: Heather Hendricks

Men's Ski Pipe Finals- Winter Dew Tour
The Winter Dew Tour at Snowbasin Resort concluded Sunday with slopestyle finals, in both skiing and snowboarding. Kicking things off early in the AM were the dudes of skiing. 12 super-duper pros took to the course each vying for a win.

As with all of the contests that went down at the Wendy's Invitational, the field was uber stacked- in this case more so than a Baconator, and triplestack stacked.

The sun was blazing, and the skier's were simply 'amazing- each showing the judges they wanted a win.
Second to drop was mista Bobby Brown, who laid down a fierce first run that scored a 90.0 right off the bat. Then Mr. Brown upped the ante by going even bigger and earned himself 93.25.

Ian Cosco had a great showing as he lauched a double corked 12, but just wasn't able to keep it keep clean enough to break into podium.

Coming in hot for second was the winner of the Breck Dew Tour, Andreas Havtveit.
"Dre" got nifty on all the rail features, switching it up all over while styling it out, but his attempts just weren't enough to edge out Tom Wallisch.

Wallisch was in it to win it, and that's exactly what he did. His run was very progressive and simply incredible to watch. Here's what T-Wall unleashed- double switch-up on the up-flat-down rail, 270 on, pretzel 450 off the second rail, left 900 tail, switch right 1080, to switch left double cork 1080.
Dizzie? So was the crowd!



Tom Wallisch- Doing his thing, and making it look easy. Congrats!

Stale Sandbech Lands Triple Under-Flip 1260

The 18-year-old stomped it off a massive kicker in Europe.

While many of us were sulking because the season is practically over, Norwegian shredder, Stale Sandbech was busy stomping a brand new trick. A video of the 18-year-old hitting a massive kicker in Europe just surfaced, and in it, Sandbech stomps a triple underflip 1260. Yeah, we didn't really think that was possible either, but this video from Stale's sponsors proves it.

After seeing the video, we had to know what was going through Sandbech's mind when he stomped the new trick...
