The third and (not quite) final leg of the Westbeach Snowflex Series went off last weekend on the dryslope of Noeux Les Mines, France. The weekend-long event was blessed not only with blazing sunshine, but some blinding riding as well, as this rad little video roundup shows. The best of the best of the UK’s dryslope riders turned out to contest the crown: The Westbeach team of
Matt MacWhirter, Billy Morgan and
Andy Nudds all rode impressively, and the likes of
Wayne Taylor and
Mike Austin also threw down. In the end however, none of them could quite match the steeze of
Cody Heirons, who’s back 7 beat Billy’s cab 9 attempts in a closely-fought final. In the women’s comp,
Liz Osbourne’s back three was reckoned to be better than
Sam Rogers’ frontside version of the same trick, giving Liz the title by a whisker. Hit more for the full results and look out for details the recently added bonus round in Bearsden on December 4th!
