Hey Park & Pipe Community!!
What a good few months we have had.
Our Aussies are making the most of the Southern Winter travelling between New Zealand and Australia’s NSW and VIC resorts, racking up some great results along the way.
As always, August was full to the brim with both junior competitions and high-level ANCs. Let’s take a ride down memory lane and catch up on the top performances from the recent ANC competitions and Triple Crown Series ⛷️🏂
At the beginning of August, the ANC Triple Crown Series continued with Slopestyle in Thredbo. A collection of 60 athletes competed in the event across both Freeski and Snowboard. Aidan Laing claimed bronze in Men’s Freeski, alongside Daisy Thomas who secured the shiny Gold and Indra Brown stomping her way to third for the Female competition as well. For our snowboarders the competition was a little more fierce, with 30 men competing in the Slopestyle event. Jesse Parkinson placed 5th as our best Aussie Male; a fantastic result! However, it was our female snowboarders who crushed it with Mela Stalker, Ally Hickman and Jess McGregor cleaning up the women’s snowboard podium claiming 1st, 2nd, and 3rd respectively. LETS GOO!!
The next stop for our keen ANC competitors was New Zealand. The Remarkables hosted the second Slopestyle Event for the series which brought in a range of competition from across the world. Once again, Aidan Laing claimed 3rd place in men’s Freeski, and Indra Brown stood up top winning 1st for the Women’s!! Josh Robertson-Hahn was the highest placed Aussie in the Men’s Snowboard event, placing 7th overall, and Meila Stalker for the Women’s Snowboard event, placing 4th!!
Finally, the ANC Park & Pipe competition was brought back to Thredbo for the Big Air event. Our Aussies put down some of their best tricks, showing everyone what Australia’s Park & Pipe riders can do. In the Women’s Freeski event, Daisy Thomas claimed gold position, followed by Abi Harrigan with silver. The Men’s Freeski saw Joey Ellis on top of the podium in 1st place, and Hugo Broadbent claiming bronze. Over to the snowboarders, Meila Stalker and Ally Hickman landed 1st and 2nd place respectively. In addition to Jesse Parkinson who placed 3rd in the Men’s Snowboard event.
This event concluded Thredbo’s Triple Crown Series, check out the final podium results below!
A huge congratulations to all our Aussie Park & Pipe athletes that competed in the Triple Crown series and ANC events.
Keep up the amazing work! We love to see it 😆
