There was some epic tricks pulled off and close competition at X-Games in Tignes, France over the weekend of the march 20th. Louri Podladtchikov landed the first cab double cork 1440 in competition. For those who don't know the terms cab means a switch front side spin, cork is a side flip and 1440 is four full rotations. He did this in the superpipe which is even more impressive. Louri Calls this the YOLO flip. Heres a video.
Here is the medal placements for both the mens and women's super pipe from X-games Tignes. The second of six events in the new set up of the X-games which you can read about in my previous blog.
