Day 2 of the Molson Canadian Freeskiing Championship saw the stoke meter go off the scale as everyone woke up to a thick coat of fresh powder covering everything in sight. A reported 18 cms overnight seemed more like 30 as excitement for the event intensified. Unfortunately with all the fresh snow came avy danger and low visibility which caused the planned second day run on Mt. Roberts to be held on Links line. The change seemed to not bother any of the competitors as all of the previously shreded lines were once again filled in with fresh snow. Read on for video highlights and more.
Day 2 action was intensified as the fresh snow definitely put some renewed courage in some of the remaining competitors and some serious airs and fast lines were laid down. Fernies Janina Kuzma took run of the day on the ladies side, linking solid airs on the lower portion of the run to bump her into 3rd, but it wasnt enough to catch Jen Ashton and leader Karolina Ekman in a very tight ladies field.
On the mens side Pete Then and Leif laid down the fastest lines of the day but it was Dave Treadways rock solid run that took top day score. Chad Sayers put down a smooth run to hang on to top spot overall. Going into the final day with only 6 points separating 1st and 10th place the highest podium could still be anyones to bag. What ski competition would be complete without a little male nudity provided by Jacob Collens exhibiting a very high pain threshold (see video).
Day 3 is scheduled for Mt. Roberts, weather permitting, and everyone has high hopes that it will be a go. Potsie and the Red patrol have been doing an excellent job managing all the new snow that has fallen and more is in the forecast, so no matter what happens the skiing at Red resort will be fantastic. If you aren't here, you should be.
