Tricia Byrnes and Doriane Vidal tied for the second place spot, with Byrnes taking the trophy on a tie-breaking second highest run score that bested Third Place Vidal by a mere 4 points. Fabienne Reuteler and Paige Warner both pulled off huge Backside 720's on their final runs of the day to finish fourth and fifth respectively. Once I saw my first run score, I knew I had to try a McTwist on my second and am just glad I pulled it off. The Vans Triple Crown of Snowboarding is one of the seven Vans Triple Crown Series in as many sports. Points are tabulated from the top three Snowboarding events of the season, including the competitions at Breckenridge, CO, Snow Summit, CA and Sierra at Tahoe, CA and the winner is crowned at the final event.
Participants earn points from their highest scoring discipline at each of the three events.
The winner in the men's division will receive a 2001 Ford Ranger and the winner of the women's division will receive a trip for two to the Vans Triple Crown of Surfing in Hawaii. The Ford Ranger North American Championships continue tomorrow at Sierra at Tahoe with the Big Air Finals. Inc. All rights reserved. Do not duplicate or redistribute in any form.
