Anthony Mesere took home the win for the Cliff Bar Whip Off. He was way up in the trees and out sideways far more than anybody else.

Takes home the cake in the whip off with some tree canopy branch buzzing maneuvers. Supreme iPhone lurk hitting the bonar log.

Here's a breakdown of the notables:

One shout out I'd like to mention was Thomas Genom's foot plant on the last hit, unfortunately this is going to have to be left up to the imagination since I only heard about it going on, but word around the water cooler was he boosted a solid 8 feet out of the final quarter to foot plant on a tree sitting a few feet back from the lip. Originality points go to that one.

Like almost every photographer shooting an event, there's the typical hanging around the same feature while a few riders go by, so I'm going to pull out a "Who rode it better" and let you guys decide.

Who Rode it better Semenuk with a reg truck or Pilgrim with a backflip

Who Rode it Better Jordie Lunn with a foot plant and fashion pants or Aggy with the hand plant.
