While we’re on the subject of snow, here’s the results of the 2009 Whitestyle from Leogang.
Twenty years old Spaniard Andreu Lacondeguy won the top spot but Lance McDermott got the “Sickest Trick Award” for his tuck no hand frontflip, which he launched for the first time ever at a mountain bike competition. I’ll try and get Lance on the phone tomorrow for a chat. (Lance if you’re reading this, give me a phone at the office, oh and you too Andreu)
