The men’s final was dominated by Canadian riders. The best run was thrown down by Max Parrot. He started his run with 50/50 to Backlip on the rail, a Backside Rodeo 900 over the roller, followed by a Cab Double 12 Mute, a Frontside Triple 1440 and a Backside Triple 16 Mute on the kicker line with a great finish on the jib feature.“The riders were killing it today. It means so much to me be on top of the podium. Conditions were perfect and I am happy I could land my Backside Triple!”
Fellow countryman Mark McMorris came in 2nd, Tyler Nicholson 3rd.

In the ladies final, winner Enni Rukajärvi (FIN) launched her top run with a Boardslide Pretzel Out on the rail, a Switch Backside 180 Mute over the roller, continuing with a Frontside 7 Tailgrab, a Backside 5 Stale and a Cab 7 Stale on the kicker line before hitting the final jib feature. “It feels so good to be back on top of the podium after 2010.
