CADBURY MORO STREET JIB FINAL

22 August 2003


The final of the Cadbury Moro Street Jib Series in Wanaka attracted a huge crowd and full field of 36 boarders and skiers with their eyes on the $1,000 prize pool.

Local Skiers
The skiing field was particularly strong with a number of the country's top free skiers in town for this weekend's Nationals at Cardrona. Dave Turner from Queenstown took the honours with a 50-50 slide, closely followed by Wanaka's Byron Wells who at just 11 was the event's youngest competitor.

Snowboard winners
The snowboarding was also a very close run competition with Nick Stephens from Cambridge coming out top with a boardslide switch 50-50 switch backside 180 off which in layman's terms means impressive. Second place went to one of only two female competitors, B (Nabila) Piper from Wanaka. Yato Yoshino from Japan came third.
