Winning's never easy, especially when you gotta do it on a vert ramp against Pierre-Luc Gagnon and Bucky Lasek and Andy McDonald, but with a run to remember, Shaun took the top spot on the podium today at the Dew Tour in Portland.
After coming unstuck on his first two runs in the final, Shaun was able to put together something special for the good folks of The City of Roses. "I knew I had to do a heavy-heavy combination and I nailed it," was Shaun's explanation.
As for the specifics, the winning combo goes a little something like this: frontside fakie 540, to fakie 540 cab, to 720, to armadillo, or for all you laypeople, a frontside heelflip body varial 540.
It was Shaun's first Dew Tour appearance since '08, which may have helped fuel the fire. "I wanted to show that I've got it down," he surmised. Consider this mission accomplished.
