The result? A field where reputations matter less than execution.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Saturday\u2019s qualification round had already hinted at the fireworks to come. In a wind-affected two-run battle that trimmed the men\u2019s field from 29 to 16, defending Christchurch champion Kaidan Ingersoll qualified first with an 88.5 &#8211; less than a point ahead of 2024 Triple Crown winner David&nbsp;Godziek, while Switzerland\u2019s Lucas Huppert sat just 1.5 points back in third. On the women\u2019s side, five finalists&nbsp;emerged&nbsp;from practice sessions earlier in the week.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But&nbsp;finals&nbsp;day introduced something entirely new.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the first time in Slopestyle history, a&nbsp;Shootout Round. Developed alongside the FMBA and athletes, it was added to the format, ensuring the competition would remain alive until the very last trick.&nbsp;All riders within 10 points of the podium after&nbsp;run&nbsp;2 get a chance at adding up to 10 points to their score by throwing down one trick on a feature of their choice, making victory laps and early&nbsp;celebrations&nbsp;a thing of the past.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"853\" src=\"https:\/\/43ride.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/02\/crankworxchristchurch-2026-slopestyle-ctrahan-shealenreno.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10648\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Shealen Reno \/ photo: Clint Trahan<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Shealen\u00a0Reno Snatches Gold in Dramatic Shootout Finish<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Momentum proved elusive early in the women\u2019s final. Riders struggled to generate speed in the bottom section, with Morgan Antone and Chelsea Kimball unable to complete their lines.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When the dust settled after the opening runs, Patricia&nbsp;Druwen&nbsp;held the provisional top spot. But in run two,&nbsp;Shealen&nbsp;Reno responded, edging ahead with a 1.33-point advantage and applying late pressure&nbsp;&#8211; setting up a first-ever SSL Shootout between herself and Reno.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With both riders selecting the final feature, the stage was set directly in front of a roaring Christchurch crowd.&nbsp;Druwen&nbsp;threw down a backflip, pulling into the top spot. Reno answered with a Disco Can, a higher-risk, higher-reward move that&nbsp;ultimately sealed&nbsp;the deal. Reno snatched gold from&nbsp;Druwen&nbsp;in the final seconds, taking victory with 90.33 points to&nbsp;Druwen\u2019s&nbsp;90.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Behind them, Harriet Burbidge-Smith claimed third \u2013 securing her wildcard to the Rotorua Slopestyle in Memory of&nbsp;McGazza, while Antone and Kimball rounded out the top five.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"853\" src=\"https:\/\/43ride.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/02\/crankworxchristchurch-2026-slopestyle-ctrahan-erikfedko.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10646\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Erik Fedko \/ photo: Clint Trahan<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Fedko\u00a0Delivers Strategic\u00a0Masterclass\u00a0<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If the women\u2019s final was dramatic, the men\u2019s contest was historic.\u00a0From the outset, Erik\u00a0Fedko\u00a0set the benchmark. His first run scored 92.5 points and stood unchallenged for most of the competition. Head judge Pete Henke called out amplitude, style, great trick variety, and making it look \u201cso effortless\u201d.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Shootout round, however, turned the leaderboard into chaos.\u00a0Kaidan Ingersoll briefly jumped into second before slipping back to fifth.\u00a0Chance Moore improved his score but ultimately finished fourth.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then came the heavy artillery. &nbsp;David&nbsp;Godziek&nbsp;launched a&nbsp;Cashroll&nbsp;Tailwhip, adding 9.2 points and moving into first. Nicholi&nbsp;Rogatkin&nbsp;responded with a perfectly executed Oppo&nbsp;Cashroll, adding 7.8 points to slide into second.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fedko\u00a0remained last to drop. With\u00a0Godziek\u00a0in the hot seat,\u00a0Fedko\u00a0answered with a massive\u00a0Three-Down Whip Seat Grab Indian Air,\u00a0adding 8.2 points to his tally and pushing his final score to a staggering 100.70 &#8211; reclaiming the top spot and securing gold.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">History unfolded in real time with the Slopestyle Super League ushering the sport in a new era and a new format\u00a0changing up\u00a0the game.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Crankworx Christchurch \u014ctautahi Slopestyle podium:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Erik\u00a0Fedko\u00a0(GER) \u2013 100.70pts\u00a0\/\/ Shealen\u00a0Reno (USA) \u2013 90.33pts\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>David\u00a0Godziek\u00a0(POL) \u2013 99.86pts\u00a0\/\/ Patricia\u00a0Druwen\u00a0(GER) \u2013 90pts\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Nicholi\u00a0Rogatkin\u00a0(USA) \u2013 99.13pts\u00a0\/\/ Harriet Burbidge-Smith (AUS) \u2013 74.66pts\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Chance Moore (CAN) \u2013 97.63pts\u00a0\/\/ Morgan Antone (NZL) \u2013 37.33pts\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Kaidan Ingersoll (USA) \u2013 92.16pts\u00a0\/\/ Chelsea Kimball (USA) \u2013 25pts\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"853\" src=\"https:\/\/43ride.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/02\/crankworxchristchurch-2026-slopestyle-ctrahan-podium.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10647\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">\u014ctautahi Slopestyle podium \/ photo: Clint Trahan<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Full results: <a href=\"https:\/\/crankworx.com\/results\/\">crankworx.com\/results<\/a><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A New Era Begins\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With the\u00a0\u014ctautahi\u00a0Slopestyle Finals, the second edition of Crankworx Christchurch officially\u00a0comes to a close, but the 2026 Crankworx World Tour is only just getting started.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Slopestyle Super League promises a season-long battle between giants and hungry challengers across FMB events worldwide, while the race for King and Queen of Crankworx and the overall Downhill Series standings has already begun to intensify.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Next stop:\u00a0Crankworx Rotorua, March 11\u201315. <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many of today\u2019s riders will return to contest the Rotorua Slopestyle in Memory of\u00a0McGazza, including Nicholi\u00a0Rogatkin\u00a0and Harriet Burbidge-Smith, who earned wildcard entries into that SSL event with their performances here.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The stage is set.
