COPPER MOUNTAIN, Colo. – Jamie Anderson of South Lake Tahoe and Chas Guldemond of Reno swept the slopestyle finals Jan. 11 at the Paul Mitchell Progression Session at the Sprint U.S. Grand Prix at Copper Mountain.

Anderson got back on track after a disappointing practice session and nailed her backside 540 mute-grab that earned her a score of 83.

Despite snowy conditions that made for slow in runs, Guldemond was able to float his signature double 1260 that earned him a winning score of 92.50.

The Grand Prix marked the first opportunity for athletes to garner Olympic qualifying points and 5Star World Snowboard Tour points.
