http://mpora.com/videos/sMMK2rR72 Having cleaned up in both the Giro Big Air and Protest Slopestyle at this year’s British Championships, Billy Morgan is seriously turning heads. A season spent in the perfect parks of Tahoe, filming regular podcasts alongside Westbeach team mates Andy Nudds and Matt Macwhirter, allowed him to progress massively.
This latest video sees Billy shredding it up on the slushy spring slopes of Avoriaz. Keep an eye out for the double backside rodeo towards the end, a trick not even Jamie Nicholls has nailed yet and which we believe is the first any Brit has stomped on film. Almost as impressive though is the jibbing; Billy has been given shit in the past for his gymnastic background (as if this somehow makes double inverts less impressive?!) but no one watching this can say the boy hasn’t got all round skills and (gasp!) style. Sorry haters, but jealousy will get you nowhere…
We for one are excited to see what will happen if and when Billy joins Jamie, Jenny Jones and Aimee Fuller at some of the big international events. Could the UK have a fourth world class contest rider on its hands?
