Eric Willett wins Ante Up!

Flux rider Eric Willett pays it forward at the 2011 Billabong Ante Up on July 1st in Whistler, Canada.
Eric destroyed the 85 foot big air gap jump in his FLUX SF45′s and won first in the preliminaries and then by throwing a switch backside double corked 1260, secured first in the finals.
For his final victory lap, Willett threw a laid out back flip—what a boss.
The summer snowboard contest marks the first stop on the TTR 2011-2012 world snowboard tour, which puts Eric first in the TTR mens world snowboard rankings!
Epic job Eric! Way to start off the tour– and with tricks like you threw to secure that 96.67 annihilating the competition, we’re sure we will be seeing you on the top for awhile!
