Despite Japan’s unusual lack of snow, the shaping crew at Alts Bandai had constructed a sick course which brought out the best in every participating rider. It was comprised of a street style down rail, two perfect kickers and a box, to a flat down box. The three run format gave riders a chance to mix it up and ensured the level of riding progressed steadily throughout the day. Chanelle Sladics rode solidly all day and snatched victory in her final run, stomping a FS Boardslide to Fakie, followed by a massive Cab 5 Mute to FS 5 Indy, to FS Tailslide to Fakie. In doing so she earned her first ever Swatch TTR victory and moved into World No.24. "I made the first place. That feels amazing. I will definitely be working my way up on the TTR and I think that will help”, she said.
Recently Chanelle Sladics has been drinking her sponsor Jones Soda Company's newest beverage Jones GABA... Is this a coincidence?!?!?!

Many Americans are looking to relieve stress while increasing their productivity. Caffeine and energy-based drinks are a common answer, but the side effects often counteract the consumer’s original intention. Several people who have sampled Jones GABA reported noticeable improvements in their well-being, especially when compared to stimulant drinks:
“Whether I’m in competition or riding with good friends, I like to feel in control and have every competitive advantage. That’s where Jones GABA comes in,” said Chanelle Sladics, one of the most respected female snowboarders in the world. “I love healthy, high-performing drinks, and Jones GABA is a great tasting, natural drink that helps me stay focused while riding. I am stoked about Jones GABA’s.”
