World-class boarders take to the slopes of Cypress Mountain to hit, grab, and alley oop their way to snowboardcross, halfpipe and parallel giant slalom gold at the 2009 LG Snowboard FIS World Cup. A $150,000 prize is up for grabs but the 63 Canadian athletes have even more on the line: a win guarantees a spot on our 2010 Olympic Snowboard team.
