MNSS SNOWBOARDER MARK MCMORRIS EARNS SECOND PLACE AT THE ONEILL EVOLUTION SLOPESTYLE
The Sport's Syndicate newest snowboarder Mark McMorris sat on the top of the podium in second place following the finals at the Oneill Evolution Slopestyle. McMorris nearly didn’t make it onto the podium with a massive fall after landing his Cab Double Cork 1260 Nose on his first run. “To get knocked out one run and then land the next run was like a dream come true,” said Mark. “I didn’t even know what i was doing. My head was mad spinning. I was knocked out. I didn’t even know if I should drop. Then it was my turn and I just dropped. That was the best choice I’ve ever made. I’m so happy right now to be okay and be on the podium.” To see photos and watch video from the event online visit snowboarding.transworld.net.
