Jossi takes Silver in pipe at first Dew tour
20th December 2009
The first event of the Winter Dew Tour is in the books. A chilly and cold night prevailed here in Breckenridge as 12 pipe skiers put it all on the line, hopes of winning prestige, glory, a nice cash purse, and probably some pro hoes later on this evening. After it was all said and done, Mike Riddle prevailed the victor, with Jossi Wells taking 2nd and reigning X Games gold medalist, Xavier Bertoni in 3rd.
Riddle, who fell on his first run, put it together on his second run: double flatspin to right 900 to left 900 to alley oop flatspin 360 to switch 900. All of King Riddles tricks were in typical high amplitude fashion, and stomped like he was born to do nothing else. The man, the myth, the kiwi, Jossi Wells brought the heat tonight in his run: left 900, right 900, double flatspin, right 720 and switch 900. The switch 900, which Jos shiftied, was so beautiful that it made grown men in the crowd weep. Xavier, who has been bringing the heat all weekend long, demonstrated some of his French riding for the crowd: Double flatspin, left 900, right 900, alley oop flatspin 360, and switch 720.
