Quiksilver rider Eric Willett, 23, came out swingng in his first run in Saturday's men snowboard slopestyle Finals in Killington, Vermont. On a day where a recent snow was slowing down the course, many of the havy hitters including Chas Guldemond and Mark McMorris were having trouble landing their reuns. But not Willett, who came in with confidence and came through with his riding.

“You just got to be confortable with your riding and know what you can do and just kind of go for it and send it,” Willett said.

His first run scored a 91,00 and went like this : front 270 on down rail in the first section to gap front lip 270 out on the gap down in the second. On the third section, he went for a front board switchout on the cannon. Next up were the three jumps, and he did a switch back 10 double into a cab 9 double to finish with a front 10 double.
He's now in third overall in the race for the Dew Cup heading into the last event in Snowbasin (UT).
