Torstein Horgmo Triple Cork at the X Games 2011

A new page in the history of snowboarding has been written and signed by Norway's Torstein Horgmo is astounding everyone with a Triple Cork!

The trick with Torstein Horgmo

is one of those that are overshadowing everything else ... it matters little that has been performed at the X Games 2011 in Aspen, no matter who has left behind him the favorite Sebastien Toutant could "only" a Double Cork 1260 and the American Sage Kotsenburg. Torstein has been running three times the board's Up And Down, and no one before had come to do the same! Now do not touch the encore in slopestyle tomorrow and then the triumph will be complete.

Torstein Horgmo's story is that of a boy from Trondheim, who grew up in one of many Norwegian schools sports that young age, was discovered and brought to international attention by Burton. The brand of Vermont, however, if the left did take away, just come of age, the other historic American brand DC board. Since 2008, he did not escape the podiums at the X Games! Just in 2008, focuses his promo gold in Big Air defeating Kevin Pierce, thanks to a switch backside rodeo 900, which already had a taste of the legend. Into the 2009 instead had to settle for a controversial silver against his idol, Mr. Travis Rice, as well as last year. This season, Horgmo has dominated both stages of the circuit professionisitco American Dew Tour slopestyle, thanks to his double cork of the most stylish and precise movement! Historical her video part with the Standard Films crew, especially that of "Black Winter" which, in my opinion, was the best of 2010. Shredding!

Next by appointment where you can see the evolution of the circus arcobata ventitrenne Norwegian Air & Style in Monaco.
