Torah Bright Wins Gold

Torah came through the qualifier in first, which means she rode last in the first round of the final. That's a huge advantage because you know exactly what you need before you drop in. At that point, Hanah Teter was leading with a 42, which was well within range. But when Torah fell early, she ended up in last place after the first round. Suddenly, she was in the worst position possible, having to be the first one down in the final round. Shaking off a fall quickly isn't easy, but it helps sometimes to be thrown straight back up there. If she had to sit, wait and sulk over what went wrong (like Gretchen Bleiler did) the result could have been different. Torah stomped her final run to win gold.

Stale Sandbech Lands Triple Under-Flip 1260

The 18-year-old stomped it off a massive kicker in Europe.

While many of us were sulking because the season is practically over, Norwegian shredder, Stale Sandbech was busy stomping a brand new trick. A video of the 18-year-old hitting a massive kicker in Europe just surfaced, and in it, Sandbech stomps a triple underflip 1260. Yeah, we didn't really think that was possible either, but this video from Stale's sponsors proves it.

After seeing the video, we had to know what was going through Sandbech's mind when he stomped the new trick...
