VIDEO: Winter X Games Europe 2011 - Kevin Rolland qualifies first in Ski SuperPipeThe X Games began in 2011 in Tignes sign of Kevin Rolland! The French, probably the strongest Freeskier of the moment, with this victory, leading to his four consecutive wins in the halfpipe at the X Games. Under a heavy snowfall, Kevin has made a fool of the French public who rushed very numerous (can not see the end of the stream to the human parterre) due to its far superior runs, 3 points, to those of his opponents.
Direct TV and a whole people in complete madness ... but I do not think these my simple words can explain what is heard and loved freeski in France. In my imagination I wish that at least a crumb, this passion for sport, can arrive in Italy, in order to "awaken" a moving light years away from the one seen here today.
The rider of La Plagne prepares a first run that left everyone without words and has granted immediately, the final victory, none of the other riders will be able to inpensierirlo. His run was impressive for its breadth and power with Double Cork 1260, Mc Twist and Double Switch 900 that leave no doubt to the judges on the color of the medal to be allocated.
Behind the Alps, Justin Dorey and fifteen Torin Yater-Wallace, in the press room, you let go promising the gold medal next year. In the afternoon there were the qualifications for the men's slopestyle, who saw the first part and only Italian to have been invited to X Games Europe, Markus Eder. The South Tyrolean strong athlete crashed in both qualifying run, too bad because he was in great shape!
was also played in the final of the slopestyle femmilile, on a good path with jumps perfect, victory for the Canadian Kaya Turski to claim his second year at X Games! Behind Turski, Keri Herman the U.S. and other Canadian Kim Lamarre.
Appointment for the slopestyle finals for the male skier and the final of women's half pipe for snowboarding ... impossible to miss!
