Chas and Jamie were rewarded with the lion's share of the $100,000 USD prize purse and 1000 Swatch TTR World Ranking points.

Chas was beyond excited with his win saying, "I'm really happy with the way I rode and to stay in first place through the last run really means a lot to me. I think it was my day today and it all came together perfect. What an amazing experience." Young American rider, Tyler Flanagan, pushed his skills to the max in his last run to take second place scoring just two points below Chas.In the women's competition, Jamie Anderson ruled the slopestyle course with her signature style and is now in an excellent position to take the 2010/11 Swatch TTR World Tour Champion title after her win in Oslo. Jamie won the women's competition with a run made up of a noseslide, 50-50 to backside 180, a huge switch backside 540, backside 360, tailslide to 270 out and ended her run with a stylish backside 540.

TTR Oakley Arctic Challenge 2011 Trailer

The Swatch TTR World Tour is running full steam ahead with the 6Star Oakley Arctic Challenge right around the corner. The legendary event, taking place in Oslo, Norway, will feature a progressive slopestyle course for both men and women, starting off with qualifications on February 17th and featuring the finals on Saturday February 19th 2011. As always, the rider list is stacked full of talented riders who will be competing for a share of the $100,000 USD prize purse and a maximum of 1000 TTR World Ranking points. The male and female winners from The Oakley Arctic Challenge will also receive automatic qualification into next year's inaugural World Snowboarding Championships, which will go down next February, 2012 in Oslo.
While the results of this weekend's 6Star Nike 6.0 Air & Style will have a major influence on the current TTR Top 10, The Oakley Arctic Challenge is sure to see a determined performance from Peetu Piiroinen (FIN), who currently sits in World No. 1, and has his eyes on finishing in the top spot of the Swatch TTR World Rankings for the season. He will, however, need to deal with some heavy competition from young Canadian contest superstars, Sebastien Toutant and Mark McMorris, who are currently in World No. 5 and World No. 6, respectively and have been singled out by Peetu as some of his major threats in the race for the Swatch TTR World Tour Champion title. Mark recently took the coveted 6Star Billabong Air & Style Innsbruck title and Sebastien won the 6Star O'Neill Evolution slopestyle competition in January. The riders list also includes up-and-coming American rider, Eric Willett, and talented Belgian rider, Seppe Smits, who are both also sitting in the TTR Top 10. American rider, Jamie Anderson, has paved her way with several victories to a promising lead in the TTR World Rankings, and will be attempting to bolster her points in order to secure a second TTR World Tour Champion Title.

Riders Ready to Go Head-to-head. 
The Riders Draw took place on Thursday evening after riders returned from the stadium. All the Air & Style events feature a unique head-to-head elimination tournament-style format. So, after training, the riders were brought together to choose names out of a hat to see who will go head-to-head in the first round of competition on Saturday. Each rider will have three runs and the rider with the best score moves on to the next round, while the rider who loses is knocked out of competition. Current Swatch TTR Tour leader Gjermund Braaten (NOR) explains, "You gotta be on it from the start and you gotta throw down your best trick from the start to make it." He was paired with Seppe Smits (BEL) who was excited about the match up saying, "Im up against Gjermund for the first run, It's gonna be a tough match, but I'm looking forward to riding and trying out the jump tomorrow, so we'll see how it goes. "Austrian Werni Stock was paired with a Norwegian youngun, "I got Stale Sandbech, one of the rookies. He moved in for iouri and is a super tough rider, super young and super motivated. I saw some serious tricks from him like Cab 12 and back 10 doubles. I'm gonna give it my best, wish me luck, I really need it. It's gonna be fun. " Stale was equally nervous about his opponent saying, "Werni Stock picked me. It's gonna be hard! It's gonna be really hard! It's a tough contest going head-to-head, and all the riders are really good. It's gonna be a tough challenge for sure." Andreas Wiig (NOR) comments on his opponent, "I got scotty Lago. He was the only one who hit the jump today so I'm shaking in my pants right now."The riders will have one more day of training tomorrow (Friday) before the action kicks of in front of 15,000 fans on Saturday 4th December 2010.
