SOURCE RIDERS PODIUM AT CANADIAN NATIONALS!!!

3 SOURCE TEAM RIDERS MEDAL AT THE 2007 HONDA CANADIAN NATIONALS HALFPIPE AND SLOPESTYLE. March 2007 24&25, 2007-Canada Olympic Park, CALGARY AB.

COP was the site of this weekend's 2007 Honda Canadian National Snowboard Championships. In addition to crowning a new Canadian National Champion, over $15,000 in cash and prizes up for grabs. Men and women competed for junior and senior national championship titles.

Saturday was the Telus Halfpipe, and admist super warm weather and slow snow conditions, Canada's best came out Firing. Starting out with the ladies, Source Rider Mercedes Nicoll took home 1st place with her smooth frontside 5-backside 5 combos, and Breanna Stangeland took home the junior national title with some smooth style and clean 540-540-handplant combinations at the bottom of the pipe. On the men's side, Source rider Jed Anderson made finals, but couldn't put anything together and finished off the podium.

Like Saturday, Sunday's conditions were no help to the riders for the Ripzone Slopestyle. That didn't stop Jed Anderson, who's wild lines left him on the podium in second place for both the Junior and Senior Slopestyle events. Jed's run consisted of a backside 50-50 to backside 3 off the skate-style hubba ledge into a backside 720 to frontside 540 to switch backside 900 through the jump line. The Source's Breanna Stangeland hooked up second in the ladies junior and senior divisions with some clean 180s through the entire course.

A big congrats to our riders for a job well done!

SOURCE RIDERS PODIUM AT SLOPESTYLE!

SOURCE RIDERS WIN/PODIUM AT CANADIAN OPEN SNOWBOARD TOUR SLOPESTYLE!

March 11, 2007-Calgary, AB.


Amidst ridiculously warm and slow conditions, Source riders Jed Anderson and Breanna Stangeland fought through it all to podium in their respective divisions at the Canadian Open Snowboard Tour Slopestyle event at Canada Olympic Park.

As most of the men were having problems just clearing the jumps, Jed was busy winning: blowing everyone out of the water with backside 7 to frontside 9 lines through the slushy jump line.

Breanna locked down second place with some smooth style and good, clean consistency from the qualifying rounds through to finals.

Congrats to Jed and Breanna, who took home $1000 and $350 for thier efforts.

SOURCE RIDER RAEWYN REID WINS AGAIN

SOURCE TEAMRIDER RAEWYN REID WINS LAKE LOUISE SLOPESTYLE
March 3, 2007 - LAKE LOUISE.

Today Source team rider Raewyn Reid took the podium at the Lake Louise Slopestyle. As some of the boys were getting hauled off by the meat wagon, Raewyn shredded the ridiculously sketchy high down rail up top and then dropped a clean front 3 off the big bottom kicker, good enough for first place.

TERJE SETS HIGHEST AIR RECORD!!

TERJE HAAKONSEN SETS HIGHEST TRANSITION AIR RECORD
March 3, 2007 - OSLO, NOR.

The Arctic Challenge always seems to be the site of ludicrously amazing riding. A few short years after Heikki Sorsa broke the quarterpipe highest air record with a backside air, Terje Haakonsen stepped up this year to not only break the record, but shatter it by doing a backside 3.

Oh yeah, everyone else rode real good too. Click the link to witness.

Terje's record breaking air.
