Three wild cards for TTR 6str The Oakley Arctic Challenge were at stake at the SWAG MAX IT slopestyle, and a bunch of the most talented Norwegian riders headed to Vierli to compete for the golden tickets.
65 young men competed in the park containing of two rail lines and two jumps and a rail in the end. Tiller won with a run containing of a cab 270 to rail, a stylish cab 9 at the first jump, and a bs 7 on the last jump, and Badertscher placed second before Joachim Krogstie at third place.
- Sondre is stylish rider with great potential. He was a rookie at TAC 2003 in Trysil, and I`m looking forward to watch him compete with the big guys at The Oakley Arctic Challenge, says Terje Haakonsen who gave out the three wild cards in Vierli.
Terje was pleased with the level of riding. – There are a lot of good slopestyle riders in Norway and I was never worried about the level. But it is still pretty early in the season and the slope was icy, but the riders still went for it. And big ups to Vierli who made this possible with a super fun park this early in the season.
See you in Oslo for The Oakley Arctic Challenge 2010!!
