After a weather day the clouds cleared enough for the top North Face Masters of Snowboarding qualifiers to rip down Crystal Mountain’s Silver King. Choosing from a plethora of 60-degree chutes, large cliffs and steep faces Crystal Mt local Forrest Burki put together a fluid, technical run to take the first place prize – a samurai sword and $3500. Maria deBari had a great technical line landing her in 2nd place just behind Shannon Yates.
Forrest was riding the GNU Billy Goat C2 Power Banana, and Maria was riding the B-Pro C2 Power Banana.
The North Face Masters of Snowboarding will head to Kirkwood February 25-27 for the finals.
