The 4th Annual 2012 Burton Canadian Open presented by MINI finished on a very high note with Chas Guldemond taking the top podium spot in the slopestyle finals. Chas walked away $10,000 richer for his performance on the challenging slopestyle course. Guldemond killed it in his second run with a frontside lipslide, backside 180 to 360 out, half-cab 180 backside 180, switch backside 900, backside double cork 1080, backside rodeo 900 and a cab 270 backside lipslide to frontside boardslide. “This is a complete turnaround from last year. I felt really good and was really stoked on the event,” said Chas. “The weather was great and is the best I’ve ever experienced at a contest. This was an awesome contest and Burton took good care of us.” Once again in the 2011-2012 season, MINI was throwing down some serious cash and prizes to the most creative riders in the Burton Global Open Series. Chas Guldemond continued to get his creative on with a 3 “Roofy” stalefish that scored him the coveted CUOS award to come up $2500 richer courtesy of MINI.
