As you know, right now, Calgary Olympic Park is the spot to be… if you are looking to watch the CANO in person.

If you don’t feel like watching it live, you can watch all the halfpipe action by clicking right here. It’ll be going on like all day- it starts at 10am MST and will run, yea, like all day. Finals start at 2:30 MST… so uh… yup, watch that.

Yesterday was a day just like today, except it was filled with slopestyle action. Pretty cool course set up for the dudes and chicks up there in Calgary. It started with a butter box to rail thing, than a down-flat-down, then a tree tap thing, down rail, and a wall ride/tall box wrapped on the rail section. After the rail section, there were three jumps, which you would know all about if you watched “Grilo from CANO” yesterday.

Anyway, all the riding was sick, but the sickest riding was done by Burton rider Roope Tonteri from Finland, he qualified first for Sundays final. Marco Grilc , Mark Sollors, Kevin Backstrom, and Seppe Smits also made finals so tune in for that.  On the women’s side Jordie Karlinski had the best run for the day, with Burton team rider Sina Candrian not far behind her in third. Slope finals we be on starting at 11MST tomorrow, so yea, there is your weekend for ya.

If Canadian events aren’t really your thing, the final stop of the Dew Tour is going on at Mount Snow, Vermont this weekend too. Today’s action will be live on NBC from 12-3:00 EST, so I guess watch that today too.

Misty Nug: Americans drink more than 300 million cups of coffee a day, 75% of which are home brewed.
