WSF Para-Snowboard World Cups

The 2011 World Snowboard Federation (WSF) Para–Snowboard World Cup Tour came to an end in Lake Louise, Alberta, with the presentation of two races during the 2011 Canada~Snowboard Nationals presented by COLD-FX®.

A total 39 athletes from nine nations took to the snowboard cross course at the Lake Louise Ski Resort. The Americans were largely represented with 13 riders in the standing category, and they showcased their world domination with a combined nine podiums in the last two World Cup races of the season.

Evan Strong of the USA was without a doubt the strongest of the 24-men field, winning both races by a landslide. Strong was the only rider to break the 50 seconds mark, and he did it in all three runs in Saturday’s race.

In the women’s field, Bibian Mentel of the Netherlands rocked Lake Louise Ski Resort with back-to-back dictating wins. Mentel won the races with a wide margin, demonstrating her domination.
