They have the start list, but nothing as far as results ?

What about conditions ? Copper Mtn webcams look nice.

Copper's gotten (yes gotten) about 15" of dry pow in the last few days. Taking from the past youd be looking at a perfect first run and then a wickedly chopped up second run. Hate to be last in the order.

Staying smart second run will be key tomorrow as I'm sure it was today.

All I could find from yesterday on USSA site. FIS site only has event listing and no results.

COPPER MOUNTAIN, CO (Nov. 18) – Vic Wild (White Salmon, MA) started the 2011 Race to the Cup alpine snowboarding series with a podium Thursday. Wild was the top American finishing in second in the men's parallel giant slalom.

Wild overtook Olympian Rok Flander of Slovenia, who placed 8th in Vancouver, to land a spot on the podium. Wild ended the day behind four-time World Cup podium finisher Zan Kosir of Slovenia.

"To get second today is pretty good. Zan Kosir has four World Cup podiums and he rode well without many mistakes today," said Wild. "I just made a small mistake and he was able to win, but I rode very well and I'm stoked that there are so many up-and-coming kids that are riding well."

Wild and the rest of the field will be in the start again Friday, for the parallel slalom event.
