Jamie Anderson took 1st place in slopestyle at the 6th annual RCJ with a clean run and styling tricks. Anderson landed a back 5, switchback 5 and a cab 5. Her big trick included a boardslide 720 off the rail.
Kelly Clark won superpipe at the RCJ by throwing down a major frontside 9 and frontside 7 to Cab 7. She had the highest amplitude and the most difficult run of the group. In a surprise move, 2010 Olympic gold medalist in snowboard halfpipe Torah Bright did a demonstration run at the end of the event to show her support for the many amazing riders at the RCJ.
NPG Cheetah Wins Mascot Competition at 6th Annual Roxy Chicken Jam
In the 3rd annual Mascot Competition at the RCJ, the NPG Cable Cheetah (worn by Mammoth local Trevor Jacob) fought his way to #1 with a front 5 and inverted front 7. Best trick of the furry battle went to last year's winner, the Hot Dog (Mammoth local Luke Wynen) with his McTwist.
Yesterday, local Mammoth rider Tyler Flanagan won the 2nd annual Quiksilver Cluck Off men's invitational with a huge corked backside 1080 with a mute grab. He received $1000 in cold hard cash, a Lib Tech board and DC boots.
Roxy will celebrate the end of the Chicken Jam with a free concert at The Village at Mammoth Mountain featuring The Bravery and N.A.S.A. after the awards ceremony. In addition to the competition and concert, spectators enjoyed a winterland festival at the Roxy sponsor tent village with hair by Paul Mitchell, touch ups by Covergirl, Roxy and Lib Tech/Gnu demo boards, DC rider signings and other giveaways and goodies.
