There were plenty of big names on hand at Mountain High competing for a chunk of the $20,000 Chulula Big Air purse. But, Spencer Link, a Mountain High team rider took home the big bucks.

This was the 14th year for the Big Air and Mountain High’s John McColly says “the event continues to gain strength with many raving this year’s course was the best it has ever been.” The course requires three Big Air leaps.

Riders such as Yale Cousino, Soctty Vine, Trevor Jacob, Ian Thorley, and Garrett Warnick were part of the field. Link won $5,000in the men’s snowboard division with a run that included a Cab 9, Front 7, and a Back 10 Double.
