Monday 6th October - The British Snow Tour made its final stop of the series on Saturday 4th October at SNO!zone Glasgow for the Trespass British Snowboard & Skiercross Championships and Slopestyle Jam. The competition was fierce as riders went head-to-head in the four way races. The Schools Tour Team also proved to be a big hit in Glasgow with over 100 enthusiastic kids taking part in the FREE beginner lessons, courtesy of the Trespass Lessons Academy.
Trespass Snowboardcross Championships and Slopestyle Jam The Trespass Snowboardcross Championships kicked off the snowboard competition on the Saturday morning with riders charging through the start gates and on into the head-to-head qualifying rounds, until only the fastest four male and female competitors were remaining. In the women’s final, Jules Chappell had the gold in her sights and accelerated out of the start gates, leading the entire race and over the finish line in first place, taking the 2008 Women’s Trespass Snowboardcross Title. Second place went to Jennifer Clarke with Riona Mary Peterson taking a close third. It was a tight race out of the start gates in the men’s final with all neck and neck until the first burm where three competitors spectacularly collided. The only kids men to make it through to the final, Tom Hunt, was quick to seize this opportunity and edged away from the pack to take the lead which he held through to the finish line to take the 2008 Men’s Trespass Snowboardcross Title, leaving Andrew Mackinnon and Gary Walsh to take second and third respectively.
