After winning the slopestyle today at the Chicken Jam, Jamie claimed enough points to win the 07/08 TTR Championship. Rockstar is not only officially sponsoring the event, but is so stoked about her result, that the guys decided to sponsor Jamie’s unofficial TTR afterparty. I have the slight feeling it would have taken place anyways to wrap up a long season and fun event, but with that much to celebrate you better get your fake IDs out, your partypants on and swing your ass down to the Whiskey Creek in the center of Mammoth (if you bring your credentials you might even enjoy a couple of free drinks - don’t ask for Vodka Red Bull though…)

And by the way - if you happen to have unpurposely taken the 5th place TTR check, that does not only mean bad karma…Cheryl Maas will come to haunt you for those $9.000 Terje dollars.

Be there or be square…

Matthias clucking about the weather

Crazy weather has been following the Swatch TTR World Snowboard tour for the last couple of weeks and the Roxy Chicken Jam, being held this weekend at Mammoth Mountain, California, has been no exception. The first day of the Chicken Jam (the last 6-Star event on the women’s tour) was delayed due to some unexpected snowy weather today.

Time for Burton European Open again! Its always fun to come back to Laax where I had my first ever big contest in 2000. Wow, its already 8 years ago!

I was surprised when I saw all the snow on the trees on my way up to Laax. Last year it was just green fields all over the place…. Hope this season will be whiter then last year ☺

The TTR Crew took the massive 60-person gondola to the top of the Kitzsteinhorn Glacier to meet up with the girls at the top of the Roxy Glacier Park. The wind was howling and it was freezing! It was hilarious trying to get down.

While we were waiting in the restaurant at the peak, we noticed that all the rider’s boards were sitting in a row, so a TTR employee, who will remain anonymous, decided to bring back the sticker slap and plastered the TTR World Snowboard Tour logo on Jamie Anderson’s board. We’re still not sure if she’s figured it out, so we’re hoping it’ll stay on long enough for the finals tomorrow… Read the rest of this entry »

Up on the Kitzsteinhorn Glacier at the Roxy Park, qualifications for the Swatch TTR SIX(6)STAR Roxy Chicken Jam went down today and we had a chance to catch up with some of the girls up on the side lines. Qualifications went down without a hitch, except for the slightly cold weather. Nevertheless, the Top 8 qualifiers will be moving on to tomorrow’s main event! Read the rest of this entry »
