The biggest story of the weekend was that Salomon Skis walked away with a grip of hardware. Congrats are in order for Mr. Simon Dumont who destroyed the ski pipe competition at the first stop. Good thing for that second run. Hopefully this momentum will push him all the way to his Winter X Games appearance later next month. Hey kids, get on the Salomon train that swept the slopestyle podium. Congrats go out to Alexis Godbout for the win, Bobby Brown for his impressive second place finish and Sammy Carlson for rounding out the top three. Not to be left out we were stoked to see the ladies step it up as well. Their conditions were not so rad this weekend. Ashley Battersby pulled through and took the win followed by Keri Herman and Jessica Warll.

EXPN is reporting the sad news that Nike 6.0 team skier, TJ Schiller, has injured his knee while training for the Winter Dew Tour this week. Doctors have confirmed that TJ has a third degree tear of his ACL and ruptured medial meniscus. We hope that TJ will recover quickly from his injury and will be healthy enough for on mountain rehab this spring. Thoughts and prayers bud.

The Dew Tour is back for its 3rd season and registration is open. The list of pre-prequalified athletes is as deep as ever but don’t let that scare you away. Think you’ve got what it takes to take down last years champs Jossi Wells or Andreas Hatveit? Prove it.

We have seen TJ, Andreas and some of the other 6.0 athletes wearing what looked to be technical outerwear with the logo we are oh so familiar with. Well here it is. The Nike 6.0 Outerwear line dropped and it is DOPE. I am so stoked on the designs presented this year at SIA. The only question I have now is… “Nike 6.0 is proud to announce TJ Schiller, Jossi Wells and Andreas Hatveit on Nike 6.0 outerwear.” (Nike6.com) Props to all the boys and girls in Beaverton.

Put your skis away because TJ Schiller just closed down the sport of free skiing for the next couple of years. Last night at Winter X Games 10 Ski Big Air, TJ landed a double corked 1620. Yes that is correct, 1620. He just ruined the sport by progressing it way too fast. Because of an awesome couple of jumps by Bobby Brown, TJ had to settle for the silver but I am not sure he is that bent about it. WOW!

1) Bobby Brown – 100
2) TJ Schiller – 95

TJ Schiller launched the site that we have all wanted from a pro athlete in the FreeSki industry. What we have here is a, FINISHED, blog with so much more. I am sure it will build a strong following fast. This season we will see what TJ can do. So stoked.

Sammy Carlson showed up in Zurich this weekend and dominated the competition. With the sponsor support of Nike 6.0 Freeski, Rockstar and Salomon Skis, Sammy goes huge banging out a double corked 1080 with a mute grab, and a little poke in the middle. Judges were stoked on Sammy’s style. We are stoked on the new 2010 Salomon Suspect Ski. They look awesome this year with a matte black top sheet. Don’t forget to watch Sammy’s new ski movie, Can’t Stop.
