Roxy Powder Jam 2011 winners

By: Lindsay Fraka

The Roxy Chicken Jam might seem like it was ages ago but after the storm that decided to take over Mammoth and the event - Roxy still had an entirely different contest to judge.

With slopestyle getting completely axed due to zero visibility and high winds - the riders were instead provided with a GoPro camera and told to get some epic footage with what Mother Nature was giving them - loads and loads of powder. When provided with the option of park verse powder - I'm hoping most people would get stoked on the latter as much as these chicks did.

The winners of this video contest have been announced and the esteemed title of the Roxy Powder Jam winning team goes to Ty Walker, Erin Comstock, and Kimmy Fasani. While Erin Comstock and Kimmy Fasani have been in the snowboard world for quite some time and have been steadily killing it - Ty Walker is one of Roxy's youngest team riders at 14-years-old. This being said, Ty Walker took home the top individual prize of $5,000 after cleanly stomping a cab 540 into waist deep pow. Big things ahead for this little lady. The winning amateur team was made up of Mariah Dugan, Natsuki Sato, and Michelle Zeller.

Since the contest was all-around out of fashion, Roxy also gave a bonus prize away for the most entertaining footage which went to Torah Bright, Chanelle Sladics, and Celia Miller. This may be solely based on the fact that they got a hold of a cupcake and smashed it in Todd Richards face during an interview with Trouble Andrew.

Alright, that's a wrap. Wonder if next year's event can out do this one. Check the footy below:

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...
