Shaun White & Elena Hight Win Halfpipe Titles at the 30 Burton US
Shaun White & Elena Hight Win Halfpipe Titles at the 30th Burton US Open Stratton Mountain, VT (March 10, 2012) Shaun White (USA) and Elena Hight (USA) won the 30th annual Burton US Open halfpipe competition today, taking home $25,000 each and one of the most coveted titles in snowboarding. It was a day that will go down in history for many reasons – the weather was perfect, the competitions came down to the wire and record-breaking crowds descended on Stratton to be a part of the landmark 30th anniversary of the US Open. Both the men’s and women’s competitions were nail-biters, with the podium switching up constantly throughout the finals. In the women’s contest, Elena Hight had an unforgettable day as she earned her first-ever US Open championship title and was the first rider to break Kelly Clark’s 16-competition winning streak. With only 3/10ths of a point between Elena and Kelly, it was a very tough call for the judges to make. In the end, Elena won with a score of 86.50 and a run that included back-to-back 900s, a trick combination she’s struggled with over the past year. Rounding out the women’s halfpipe podium was Ellery Hollingsworth, who came in third. “I’m really happy with the whole weekend – the pipe and weather were amazing,” said Elena. “I haven’t been at the Open for a couple of years, and it’s great to come back and embrace the 30th anniversary of the event.” The men’s halfpipe final was undoubtedly one of the best in recent memory, with past US Open champions like Danny Kass and Shaun White battling it out with top riders like Louie Vito, Iouri Podladtchikov and Danny Davis.

As sad as it might seem, this is actually quite a happy time. For us a Steez, it means a small window of breathing time, and then we’re right back at it again. The end marks a new beginning though, and it’s probably pretty obvious what changes we’ve made and plan on making from here on out. You’re holding a landmark issue, full of new and awesome features. Not only is this one of the biggest is- sues we’ve ever produced, it also marks the first full color issue of Steez Magazine.

This issue is just a small taste of what you’ll be seeing from us throughout the entire 09-10 winter season, and of course, it’s all free. So yes, there’s definitely plenty of good things to look forward to next season, even before the snow starts flying again.
