The Swatch TTR 6Star Air & Style Straight Jump event enters the next level on 04, February 2011 at the legendary Bergisel Stadium, Innsbruck. 24 international top riders will be competing in a stunning battle and thrill the audience with their spectacular tricks.
In perceptia colectiva, snowboard-ul a inceput sa fie considerat un sport de masa si uitam ca este, la baza, un sport extrem. Vedem in concurs baieti care au ajuns sa faca double cork, 1080 – uri, backflip-uri si multe alte trick-uri cu nume din ce in ce mai ciudate. Conteaza atat complexitatea trick-urilor cat si stilul in care rider-ul le executa. Fie ca e vorba de backcountry snowboarding fie ca e vorba de concursuri air&style, ne asteptam tot timpul la spectacol!
Uite un exemplu in care, din pacate si din fericire in acelasi timp (pentru consecintele usoare) un rider foarte bun poate gresi … Live & learn!
The riders list of this 6star Swatch TTR World Snowboard Tour event is led by the third of the last event and third of the Swatch TTR World Ranking List 2007/2008 Peetu Piiroinen (FIN/20) and the last years fourth Antti Autti (FIN/23). The fourth of the Swatch TTR World Ranking List 2007/2008 Risto Mattila (FIN/27), Kim Rune Hansen (NOR/20) and ?old master? Terje Haakonsen (NOR/34) bring more Scandinavian power to Tyrol, too.
The youngsters Arthur Longo (FRA/20), Colin Frei (SUI/20) and the daredevil Manuel Pietropoli (ITA/18), who has the heart after his unfortunate bail last year will be attending from the Alps. The Zillertal locals Werner Stock (AUT/21) and Peter König (AUT/20) enjoy their home field advantage. The German flag is represented by Christophe Schmidt (GER/25) from Schliersee, eighth at the Olympic Halfpipe 2006.
The head from overseas is the Swatch TTR World Tour fifth Andy Finch (USA/27). For sure he will as always stick with his motto ?Go big or go home?. We can also look forward to the 16 years old new blood hope Seb Toutant (CAN/16). The quarter pipe specialists Steve Fisher (USA/26), Shayne Pospisil (USA/23) and Chad Otterstrom (USA/32) are coming to the Bergisel, too. In total there will be 24 riders to compete.
