On Friday evening, TransWorld SNOWboarding hosted a great night at the Riverwalk Center in Breckenridge, Colorado. As expected, the line was out the door, the energy was high and the after parties were rowdy. The night’s host Eddie Wall kicked off the night by paying homage to Dew Tour’s and TransWorld SNOWboarding’s own Gerhard Gross who passed away four months ago due to cancer. The snowboarding community also lost Dillon Ojo and Noah Salasnek who were honored as well. All three of these figures played a prominent roll in progressing snowboarding and cultivating the community and industry as a whole.

Right off the bat, it was easy to realize that every nominee was deserving of an award; but obviously there can only be one winner per category. The most notable winner was Anna Gasser who, after becoming the first woman to lad a triple cork last month, won first place in Dew Tour Women’s Slopestyle yesterday and won two Rider’s Poll Awards later that night: Women’s Reader’s Choice Award and Women’s Rider Of The Year. Only time will tell what what is next for Gasser …
