MAMMOTH MOUNTAIN, CA (March 22, 2015)- The fourth and final stop of the U.S. Revolution Tour took place in Mammoth Mountain, CA with X Games halfpipe gold medalist Chloe Kim (La Palma, CA) taking the slopestyle win and the overall slopestyle tour title.

Fellow U.S. Team member Nik Baden (Steamboat Springs, CO) landed back-to-back 1080s for the win on the men’s side.

Kim, who is quickly becoming known for her remarkable riding, won the slopestyle with a frontside 540 and a cab 540 combo, besting her best friend and U.S. Grand Prix winner Hailey Langland (San Clemente, CA) and Australian Jessica Rich. Summer Fenton (San Francisco, CA) won ladies halfpipe with a crippler 720, ahead of Jenna Dramise (Truckee, CA) in second and Clara Jenner (Salt Lake City, UT) in third.

Baden beat out his rookie team members Red Gerard (Dillon, CO), who was second, and Brock Crouch (Mammoth Mountain, CA) in third. In halfpipe, Spencer Shaw (Stratton Mountain, VT) started off a stellar run with a huge frontside 1260 into back-to-back 900s and a cab double cork, earning his first halfpipe win of the season in front of rookie team riders Ryan Wachendorfer (Edwards, CO) and Toby Miller (Truckee, CA).

As it was the final stop of the season, the U.S. Rev Tour winners were named. Jack Pates (Aspen, CO) and Kim took the slopestyle titles, while Maddie Mastro (Wrightwood, CA) and Gabe Ferguson (Bend, OR) were named the halfpipe champions.

The U.S. Revolution tour handed out $67,000 in a total tour prize purse this season and has proven to be a great stepping stone tour for up-and-coming riders.
