Kelly Clark & Shaun White Lead Qualifiers for Mammoth Grand Prix

by Lorene Voskinarian : January 6, 2010 - 10:13 : : 0 comments

The second Sprint US Grand Prix event of the season has, thus far, followed the same blueprint as the first. Former Olympic Gold medallists Kelly Clark and Shaun White both dominated the qualifiers heading into today's halfpipe finals.

Clark dominated with this run: frontside air, back 5, front 7 tail, cab 7, indie front 5, indie backside air.

"It's always encouraging being able to make it to the finals having done so well. Being able to be consistent in the qualifiers is a great way to head in to the finals," Clark said. "I'm looking for some consistent results, and it should set me up for a fun week."

Spring in November at Mammoth Mountain

As the first resort open in California, Mammoth Mountain started up Broadway Express lift on November 3, over a week ahead of scheduled opening day. For the mountain’s “official” opening celebration two weeks later, Mammoth had up to four feet of snow on the slopes.

Friday night of opening weekend consisted of a huge collective of Mammoth locals, industry kids, and friends out at the bars to kick the weekend off right. With a Volcom party at Whisky Creek and Monster hosting free drinks at Lakanuki, it was an awesome night.
