Continuing on my friends and roommates thread from yesterday two days ago, I got an email from my friend Justin Modroo yesterday saying I should tune in to Fox Sports Net May 7th, he was going to be on TV!
Justin finished up the competition in second place, after taking the top spot on the first day:
MT. CRESTED BUTTE, CO (March 28, 2003) Freeskiing “part-timer” Justin Modroo and top World Tour star Ingrid Backstrom took the top positions today at the 12th Annual SAAB U.S. Extreme Freeskiing Championships. They both impressed judges with near-perfect form, aggression, speed and control on the challenging Staircase run in Crested Butte’s Extreme Limits area. Staircase is a narrow, technical gladed run with rocks, cliff bands, 600 feet of vertical and an average 40 degree pitch. The venue required precision technique through thick trees and difficult springtime snow pack and powder conditions. Heated competition shaved the field to thirty men, fifteen women and ten juniors including two girls.
Congratulations Justin! I’ll be watching!
