The clouds rolled in, the mercury fell, and the course stayed rock hard, but despite the firm conditions, the riders proved harder and stepped to the course.&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p class=\\\"MsoNormal\\\"&gt;\\n&lt;p class=\\\"MsoNormal\\\"&gt;\\u201cIt\\u2019s bulletproof everywhere,\\u201d said Bryce Maxwell, technical supervisor for slopestyle. \\u201cIt just speaks to the confidence these kids have in their tricks.\\u201d&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p class=\\\"MsoNormal\\\"&gt;\\n&lt;p class=\\\"MsoNormal\\\"&gt;Confidence straight oozed from the men\\u2019s champion, 18-year-old Silverthorne local, Brett Esser, who front 180\\u2019d to 50-50 on the first rail, switch board to 270 on the second, and nailed the triple line with a switch backside 9, front 9, and a cab 9, finishing things off with a nose press to take the $3,000 purse, adding to the grand he took home for his second place finish in Open pipe yesterday.&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p class=\\\"MsoNormal\\\"&gt;\\n&lt;p class=\\\"MsoNormal\\\"&gt;Anchorage, Alaska local Ryan Stassel, also 18, took home $2k for his second place finish that included a cab 9, backside 7, front 10 combo, and Minnesota\\u2019s Tyler Anderson rounded out the top three.&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p class=\\\"MsoNormal\\\"&gt;\\n&lt;p class=\\\"MsoNormal\\\"&gt;While Eric Beauchemin, 20, out of Stratton just missed the podium, coming in 4&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;\\/sup&gt;,, he stomped the best trick contest, called the Hot Shot Award, for his backside rodeo 7, which head judge Shawn Carney said definitely caught all the judges eyes with its unique style.&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p class=\\\"MsoNormal\\\"&gt;\\n&lt;p class=\\\"MsoNormal\\\"&gt;On the women\\u2019s side, Ty Walker, 14, took the cake and the $2k purse for Stowe, Vermont with a backside 50\\/50 and boardslide on the rails, into a front 3 melon, tail grab, back 3 method combo through the booters, closing things off with a 50-50 nosepress on the bottom rail.
