Is This English?

I'm not sure what possessed me, but I was reading some coverage of the winter olympics, and ran across coverage of the women's snowboarding event.

About halfway through I was trying to decipher is this was written in English or some offshoot tongue I was previously unaware of. For reference:

One day after the U.S. guys went one-two, the Bettys did the same. They were absolutely mocking the pipe. Surfing the frozen chute, they soared to huge airs and nailed phat tricks. It was, like, the coolest day ever!

I feel like I should be reading through the article with a phrasebook in hand. Can someone send me a link to the subtitled version for us old-timers?
