After Eric Willett's win yesterday in the slopestyle event, Iouri Podladtchikov today carried again high the Quiksilver flag by winning the half pipe event of the 2011/2012 Dew Tour second stop in Killington, Vermont, USA. American rider Louie Vito was leading the final when I-Pod dropped in the icy killington half pipe.

The Swiss Russian born snowboarding star won the final throwing a Cab 720, frontside crippler into back 1260 into front 1080 to cab 1080 all perfectly landed with an impressive amplitude and his tailor made smooth style. Despite an engaged second run, Vito could not overtake Iouri, declared the winner by the judges with a 96,75 points score out of 100. After his third place finish in Breckenridge last month, Iouri takes the lead of the Dew Tour Rankings with 182 points in front of Louie Vito, second with 180 points. With one week to go before the X Games, I-Pod looks in a terrific shape !
