SPY’s pro wakeboarder Melissa Marquardt and the MAHFIA crew took the SPY van up to Mammoth this past weekend for the 6th Annual Roxy Chicken Jam. Sunny spring time shred through the park, dudes in chicken and bear suits, hanging with SPY team rider Sarka at the top of the pipe, enjoying the free concert in the village by N.A.S.A and The Bravery, sushi and one extra large Krispie treat later…let’s just say you could find plenty of SPY stickers all over the place. We even caught up with Roxy Chicken Jam founder Tina Birbaum on the chair lift up the park. A HUGE congrats to SPY team rider Sarka Pancochova for taking an impressive 3rd in the 2009/2010 TTR Rankings! Special thanks to Kim, aka ‘The Boss’ from Mahfia Productions for photography/filming and Bryan from Vitamin Water for keeping us gals hydrated. We needed it!
Here comes the SHARKA!!! SPY’s Czech Republic shredder Sarka Pancochova was crowned third place in rankings overall for the 2009/2010 Swatch TTR Womens World Championship. She had a stellar season finishing with 834.88 total points at this past weekend’s annual Roxy Chicken Jam in Mammoth.

Hot off the press and ready to take on the heavy comp, the SPY all-star line up will be ready to grab gold at this year’s premier Winter X Games Europe in close to zero temps in Tignes, France March 10-12th.
Recent Vancouver Olympians, crowd pleasing favorite Louie Vito has been crushing the pipe all season while young gun Sarka Pancochova is slaying her practice runs with huge straight airs and smooth style and keep your eyes on Iouri Podladtchikov — he’s been stomping a double Mctwist 12! For Slopestyle, Frederik Evensen will be pushing the envelope with his undivided attention to perfection of jaw dropping spins with his mellow laid back style.
Back at it, fresh off his Stair Rail Battle win from Switzerland, JF Houle will be throwing down in ski slopestyle all the while technical savvy Canadian Charles Gagnier will be ready to impress. Time to make them go nuts, the crowd will be front and center to watch ski pipe rider sensation Duncan Adams compete in the inaugural Winter X Europe. All eyes on deck watch for these unstoppable SPY’s.
