Yea, Jamie won the delayed Roxy Chicken Jam Slopestyle event in Mammoth and with that she won the overall Ticket to ride tour. Everyone kept talking about Torah Bright and Kelly Clark possibly winning the overall so I was kind of surprised to hear that Jamie won the overall. It is definitely not a surprise to hear that Jamie won the slopestyle event since she has been killing it all season though and was actually in second place overall coming into the weekend. Here is my educated guess what happened. Even though Torah Bright and Kelly Clark were running one and two in the ratings after the pipe jam, Jamie entered pipe (and got some points) and won slope. The combined pointts accrued over the weekend put her on top. So congrats to her. You may ask yourself, well how did they get there? Simple weather. The slope contest was originally scheduled for Sunday but wind and powder did not agree. Instead of ripping 7's down the course, the contests were rippinf pow turns instead. The pow was really good too. For Monday the sun was out and it was a much better day to run things. photo-courtesy_roxy-borchart11.JPG

Big crowd for Saturday (shown), no crowd for the storms on Sunday's postponed slope finals 4_anderson.jpg 1 and 2 on the podium - Chanelle Sladics (2nd) and Roxy Chicken Jam jam/TTR champ Jamie Anderson. Jamie is fine, I just caught her with her eyes half closed 5_park.JPG

In case you were wondering, part of the skatepark is dry 6_park.JPG

The contest was called off due to wind and snow but that meant insane riding in the protected zones of Mammoth 16_roxy.jpg

Roxy and the sponsors did their best to entertain the fans while the winds raged outside 18_lincoln.jpg

 Chute 1 and 2 after the contest was called it was time to ride and snow blew into these chutes all day 19_lincoln.jpg
