The Micron team Benelux had another weekendof CAD (chill and destroy) contests the went to Austria a few days early to dosome training and getting used to the park. Unfortunately Erik Bastiaansen dida knuckle landing on the first day there, this resulted in a injury to hisheel. So he stopped for the day hoping it would be better the next day for thecontest. The other boys and their trainer Bram Nuiten did some nice treerunsand called it a day after that.

The next day the kids went to the park todo some practice runs. The park was not that big but it was nicely shaped. Sothe conditions where good. After a couple of practice runs it was to bad forErik he had to withdraw from competition because of his injury…

Sothe brothers van Bouwhorst had to represent this time and they did, they botheasily Qualified for the finals with some nice and clean runs. In the finalsthey Both performed well resulting in a 7^th place finish forJazzley. But the best run came from Ziggey in his second run he killed it likea boss. Ziggey finished 2^nd.

This past Sunday, February 12th, the Superpass Series made its third stop at Sierra-at-Tahoe Resort. It was a gorgeous sunny day, and Sierra-at-Tahoe had more than enough snow to put together an amazing course. Tahoe's best showed up to battle it out for an invite to Superpark 16.
Divided into three zones, Zone 1 featured two jibs; a flat-to-down rail and a large pole jam. Both features were situated on a 6 foot high step-down platform, which allowed competitors to either gap to the down portion of the rail, or send it off the pole jam. Zone 2 featured a perfectly sculpted 55 foot jump, where some of the more technical tricks of the Superpass Series thus far were put down. Zone 3 was a large hip, which could be hit either as a right-sided hip, or could be taken deep to the backside. It was a perfect setup for Superpass, built by one of the best terrain park crews in the country.

In the end, it was the death-defying stunting of Jordan Nield that earned a first place finish, along with an invite to Superpark 16. With several spin variations onto the rail, deep airs on the jump, and multiple double backflip attempts over the hip, Jordan had the crowd and competitors alike cheering. Here he one foots his way to victory...
