Representing the southern hemisphere, Kiwi shredder Shelly Gotlieb killed it - placing 6th in the first Dew Tour Slopestyle for '09 at Breckenridge, Colorado!!!
The first stop of the Winter Dew Tour wrapped up today with the Slopestyle Finals for both the men and women. It was another perfect weather day and some hellish riding went down. On top of that, TV announcers were wrangling kids for chug-a-Dew contests to win free O-Matic boards. Dew Tour is wild. Last night the scene in Breck was some sort of mutated Spring Break blowout.

Not the most epic of days for the ladies slopestyle final, though some sick riding went down in practice. All the ladies in the final fell in their runs—but third place finisher Jenny Jones spun some back-to-back fives. In second came Sarka Pancochova. Sharky—as her team manager called her, said she was both “happy and sad.” Happy to get second and sad that she didn’t stick her front seven or beat today’s winner Jamie Anderson. Jamie settled the win for the ladies with a switch backside 540.
