February 2-7th – Burton Canadian Open (Halfpipe and Slopestyle)
|
General Info
COMPETE AT THE SECOND ANNUAL BURTON CANADIAN OPEN!
The Burton Canadian Open ("CANO") is coming back to WinSport Canada's Canada Olympic Park on February 2-7, 2010. Join riders from around the world in competing in world class halfpipe and slopestyle courses and for a $50,000 cash purse.
The third stop in the Burton Global Open Series, the CANO will be a crucial stop for riders looking to accumulate BGOS points. This is even more important this year, because the top 3 men and women BGOS riders will be awarded major cash for their hard work (like $50k for 1st, $30k for 2nd and $20k for 3rd). This means that there are more chances for riders to win a serious piece of the $200,000 BGOS purse.
The CANO is also proud to be a 5Star TTR event....just another reason to get out there and compete. All riders that compete will earn TTR points, but the top male and female rider will walk away from the CANO with 800 TTR points and a chance at the TTR Championship title.
Lastly, you can find all the info you will need on schedule, formats, prize breakdown, accreditation, on the following link to the official CANO website. And be sure to check back often for any event related updates.
