It was a snowy day in Linderudkollen, and the weather conditions made it really hard for the riders to get enough speed to go really high. But the riders didnt let that stop them from launching a good variation of stylish tricks in the Linderudkollen quarterpipe.
Matt Ladley won the best trick of the day with an absolutely lovely backside 540 mute, at 5,4 meters. His other runs consisted of a clean chuckflip melon, a chuckflip melon, a bs 7 mute and a bs 900 nosebrab which he unfortunately didn`t stomp.
Antti Autti had a solid five runs consting of a nice fs 720 melon, a bs 5 nosegrab, a bs air where he fell, and a fs 9 tail inverted at 4 meters, which put him in third.
Arthur Longos five runs consisted of a 6 meter high bs air that he unfortunately didn`t stick, a bs tailgrab, a bs alley oop 360 then a 4, 9 m bs 5 mute and finally a 4 meter fs alley-oop stalefish.
The judges loved his frontsides, which are almost impossible to do in the snowy conditions, this earned him a very high variation score that put him in the lead.
Terje Haakonsen launched the highest air of the day, with a 6,5 meter high bs 5 nosegrab.
Congratulations Arthur, Matt and Terje!
