The scores weren't high enough to proplel them in to the finals so the last run was all or nothing. Mitch went super big surprising quite a number of photographers who were unable to take photo's. Joel also went big throwing two back flips!!! Best runs were Mitch Brown 12.7 and Joel 13.9 not quite enough to get either of the to the final.

Mitch Brown described the pipe as "the best he had ever ridden in"

Halfpipe:
The girls were up next all there runs were clean but not up to the standard of the other countrys whose riders were throwing all kinds of inverted tricks. Scores for the girls still remain unavailable we do know however that Sita Wills scored the higest run with 8,6 thanks must go to te Australian contingent who supplied all the entertainment for the Comp

This leaves us with the overall country results New Zealand 20th from 25 countrys. This is a fantastic effort from these kids who have never seen an event of this magnituide before. The future of snowboarding in New Zealand has a very strong future. There are rumors that New Zealand will be hosting this event in 2002 .

Thanks to all the sponsors Pulsate Cardrona 540's for making this possible.
