http://mpora.com/videos/feN3SpPMT Check out these little single-trick edits from TTR. There’s one for every rider who competed in last Saturday’s Billabong Air and Style. These four made the finals by stomping these tricks. In the end, Grilo’s Switch backside 10 late cork won it for him, but the others are seriously impressive too…
Marko Grilc’s winning Switch Backside 1080 late cork – see that little semi backflip he sticks in just towards the end? That’s the late cork.

Peetu Piiroinen got second place with these two – its a front ten and then a back ten with some serious cork on it. But not quite a double cork.

Andreas Wiig got third with this burly spin, which he only stuck on this last try in the final. This is a double cork frontside 10 in the truest sense of the word – he gets the backflips in good and early and is spinning in both directions at once – Gigi was trying to throw down a similarly ‘pure’ version of the trick. Oh yeah, and believe it or not, Andreas’ board was broken when he stomped this one!

Iouri “iPod” Podlatchikov unfortunately couldn’t stick this in the final, even though he’d been stomping it all night, so he had to settle for fourth. This is a double backside rodeo 9, so two barrel-roll backflips and a backside 180. Not bad eh? This little trick has won iPod several contests recently, including the crossover session at Freestyle.ch, which you can watch here.
