TTR Burton Canadian Open 2012 - Check The Course With Ty Walker
Calgary, AB -The fourth annual Burton Canadian Open Snowboarding Championships, presented by MINI, got underway today at WinSport Canada’s Canada Olympic Park (COP) in Calgary, Alberta. We teamed up with TTR's favourite 14 year old ripper, Ty Walker, for this 'Check The Course' so sit back and let her show you what the riders are hitting.
The second stop on the 2011/2012 Burton Global Open Series and a TTR 5Star event, the Canadian Open will include slopestyle and halfpipe competitions, offering riders the chance to earn a piece of the $72,000 prize purse and gain valuable points towards Burton Global Open Series championship titles and the Ticket To Ride World Tour Championship titles.
Day two of CANO had 64 men competing under a bluebird sky on the slopestyle course. They battled it out through pre-qualifiers and qualifiers to be one of the lucky 10 to advance to semi finals against invited riders like Chas Guldemond (USA), Robby Balharry (CAN), Scotty James (AUS) and Janne Korpi (FIN)
In the afternoon it was the women’s turn with 31 riders aiming for 6 spots in semi-finals. The ladies that made it today will compete against high caliber riders like Jamie Anderson (USA), Cilka Sadar (SLO), Silvia Mittermuler (GER) and Sina Candrian (SLO) during the semi-finals on Friday, February 2.
