The Burton New Zealand Open!

The snowboard season is almost upon us! Actually in some places like New Zealand it has already begun. The second of many stops in the TTR World Snowboard Tour has been completed with both a slopestyle and halfpipe event. Canadian Mark McMorris, one of the first kids to land a triple cork, and American Jamie Anderson were the victors in slopestyle.

American Kelly Clark won in women's halfpipe while Ryo Aono at the mere age of twelve won in men's.

Currently Roope Tonteri of Finland and Silvia Mittermüller of Germany hold the overall number one ranking.
