Huntsville, UT – David Wise, of Reno, Nev., continued his winning streak at Dew Tour Finals at Snowbasin Resort in Utah on Saturday by winning his second straight freeski halfpipe event.

It was a warm evening and the pipe was a great consistency- not too firm, not too slushy. Wise’s first run won the evening for him as his did his first ever 1440 in the halfpipe in his second run and couldn’t get to his feet.

“I’m on a hot streak for sure,” acknowledged Wise. “It’s fun to be out here enjoying the sport. Landing runs. I’ve been around in the scene for a long time and did a lot of finals where I just didn’t quite get the run the way I wanted to. So just being able to land runs and just enjoy doing what I do has been awesome. And that’s honestly what’s made the difference for me.”

France’s Kevin Rolland came in second place and won the Dew Tour Cup while 16-year-old Torin Yater-Wallace, of Basalt, Colo., landed on his third straight podium with a  perfectly executed double cork 1260 in his second run.Bethel, Maine’s Simon Dumont ended up in fourth place with a 91.75.

Yater-Wallace’s first run ended with his final hit; his ski came off mid-air and he landed on his feet, but his score suffered.

“I feel great about my season,” he acknowledged. “I guess I’ve been on the podium at almost every event so far. So I can’t be happier. I don’t care where I really ended up today, I just wanted to be on the podium so bad and I was. I had a ton of fun and I put down a run I had never done before, which has been my goal for a while, and I just couldn’t be happier.”
