Mikey on the middle step of the podium...

15 Year Old Mikey Ciccarelli Blitzed the rest of the field today on his last run in the men’s Slopestyle event at the Youth Winter Olympics.  Finishing with a score of 94.25 out of 100, Mikey was 4 points clear of his closest rival for the event, Ben Ferguson from the USA who won Sundays Halfpipe event.  Simple Snowboarding’s Tyler Nicholson fell on his first run and ended up in 6th place.  Congratulations to both of our team members and also to Simple Snowboarding/Team Canada coach Elliot Catton who brought home 2 Gold Medals in Slopestyle for Canada and had all 4 of his team members in the finals for Halfpipe and Slopestyle!!
