A beautiful, classic sunny Mammoth park day greeted the finalists at the Grand Prix slope style today. With perfect conditions and money on the line, it was time to send it. Up and comer Brett Esser locked in 3rd place with one of the best all around runs.
Not only did he get a front side 1080, backside 900, and cab 1260, but he also got a board slide switch up to front board and a gap to front lip on the jibs. Tyler Flanagan, fresh off a win at the Dew Tour slope style, pulled out some backside 1080 s along with a frontside and backside 900s. His style and landings were a little more solid than Brett's, so Tyler beat him out for 2nd.
The man of the day was Chaz Guldemond and he had an amazing run with a Cab 9, backside 1260, cab on to backside 360 off, gap to 5050, backside rodeo, and a switch backside 900. With that run Chaz put yet another win under is belt.
Izzy Lalive
For the ladies, it was a battle between Izzy Lalive and Jamie Anderson. Izzy got a backside 5, board slide through the kiked rail, a half-cab, and a front side 7 on the last jump. Jamie answered back with a front side 360, backside 180, board slide 270 out, and a huge frontside 720. Jamie came out on top and and took first place.
