DONT MISS THE 2007 BEANIES AND BIKINIS COVERAGE HERE
Lucas Magoon took home $10,000 for shredding over 32 other professional snowboarders in Mission Beach, CA last night. That’s right, down next to the ocean Sun Diego Board shops, Monster and a mess of other sponsors threw down money to set up a rail jam, crush some ice into snow and throw a heck of an after party/bikini jam at the Wave House. So we had it all, waves (real and artificial), the beach, snowboarding, bikinis, alcohol, skating, heck what else could you want?
- Here is the set up while the snow is being applied
- Chad Otterstrom did double duty: representing Academy Snowboards and making the 12 man final
- The talented and beautifully pale DJ Tuesday
- The scene; right next to the roller coaster, is not America great?
- Keegan Valaika during practice. Practice pays off cause Keegan got 3rd place
- Kyle Lopicollo was looking like he could take home the big pot o gold. He went bigger and tried harder than everyone else, even possibly had the most fun. In the end though, others proved more consistent overall. Here Kyle flies into a 270 to front board
- Here is Transworld cover boy Aaron Bitner 50-50’s to 180 out to 4th place
- Six girls signed up for the women’s contest. Melissa Evans beat out Silvia Mittermuler and last years winner Desiree for a victory with manuevers like this 50-50 to board
- Bozenuts or Nate Bozung with a big gap to back lip
- Mike Burton
- Sketchy D was rockin the sick tricks but also lived up to his name as he received the dubious “best wreck” award
- Mike Casanova is a heavy hitter in the rail jams
- Yale Couisno, man, another heavy hitter
- Silvia Mittermuller
- Lucas Magoon sliding to victory. Lucas pulled a lot of tech stuff so 1st place went to Lucas
- Kyle Lopiccollo said the course was fun. Heck, right now there was probably more snow on the rail jam than in all of California
- Bozenuts and Transworld’s own Evan LeFabre
- The winner, Lucas Magoon and the Dingo. Dingo announced the whole thing along side Pat Bridges of Snowboarder
On to the bikini pics which need no explanations
See you next year
