Malinoski Medals at Winter X 13

BOSS Racing returned to Buttermilk Mountain in Aspen, Colorado over the past weekend to attempt a podium at the most celebrated extreme sport venue for winter sports. Tens of thousands of fans flocked to the mountainside, in anticipation of seeing the best winter sport athletes plying their trade; BOSS Racing’s Robbie Malinoski, Dave Allard and Paul Bauerly among them.

The BOSS camp worked feverishly under the direction of new lead mechanic Ryan Duncan to prepare the sleds for the extreme track in high altitude conditions. The first chance to show the fruits of their labor came Friday night in Round 1 and Round 2 qualifying. Elation swept the team as both Pro Riders advanced to the Saturday night Main event. Robbie with a 2nd place finish and Allard with a 4th.

Saturday the crew set to work all day, chasing a mechanical issue with Robbie’s sled. Under intense pressure and a ticking clock, the team came through to deliver impressive equipment for the grueling final course.
Bauerly advanced through the LCQ to the main, positioning all 3 Ski-Doo/ BOSS riders in the X Games medal run. Two qualified on the front line, one in the back when the race began. Robbie got a great hole shot, and he and Tucker were running toe-to-toe to the first corner. Tucker took the inside line, pushing Malinoski to the outside edge of the track. Robbie quickly recovered and advanced to 2nd overall in the first few laps, carrying him all the way to the Silver Medal.

Allard had a bad start and got buried in the back, but true to his style he methodically passed one rider after another to end his run in 6th. Bauerly suffered mechanical issues, which sent him to the back and he finished in 14th overall.
“A Silver Medal at X Games is an incredible achievement for Robbie, Boss Racing and Ski-Doo. We are so excited to be able to showcase the teams commitment and talent during the most high profie event of the season. We wished all of our sponsors could have been here to join us in the celebration, because we could not be here without them”- Garry Querel- Team Owner
