Sage Kotsenburg Takes 3 Rd In Dew Tour-Utah

January 17 2010

Sage Kotsenburg stands on the podium once again at the Dew Tour, this time taking 3rd in Utah. Today was the perfect equation for an insane slope style finals. The weather was one point, the course was dialed and everyone brought their gnarley boots! Clan riders Sam Hulbert, Brandon Reis, and Eric Willet were in the mix and were throwin down. Brandon stomped a nasty run early in the heat, but unfortunately it didn't stand up to the rest of the field. Eric Willet dropped some hammers which included a finishing Double Backside Rodeo which put him 4th place overall! But it was Sage Kotsenburg who impressed the judges with linking a smooth rail combo to cab 9, backside double cork 10, and finished it off with a frontside 10. With this 3rd place finish Sage sits in 2nd overall in the Dew Tour overall standings, and will be chasing the Dew Cup at the 3rd and final stop in Mt. Snow, Vermont. A big congrats goes out to these 4 guys for pushing hard and killing it today!
