Jill Kintner Smokes the Field at Sea Otter!

Congratulations to Seattle native Jill Kintner on her win in the dual slalom at the Sea Otter Classic 2010. No numbers back yet but Jill defeated former world champion Rachel Atherton (who looked strong after an injury-forced year off) in head-on competition at the swoopy swervy course, which from photos looked to be in super tacky condition (we unfortunately aren’t at Sea Otter this year).

We’ll continue to update once tallies get posted. For now it looks to us like Jill’s wintering over in Australia with BF Bryn Atkinson has paid huge dividends. Jill has her eye on the rainbow jersey this year and is off to a resounding start!
