From: Swatch TTR World Tour

Ulrik Badertscher (NOR) won the Oakley Shaun White Air & Style Beijing competition in the Olympic Bird’s Nest stadium tonight, followed by 2 Norwegian wingmen Torstein Horgmo and Stale Sandbech. Ulrik received the coveted Air & Style Ring of Glory and 1,000 TTR World Ranking points.Ulrik’s winning run was a very clean backside rodeo 1260, which was also awarded Red Bull’s Best Trick. Torstein Horgmo commented: ’Norway did OK today. There is no secret to it, we just all got juiced and we just follow some bad ass dudes, we just try to keep up.’Favorites Sebastien Toutant (CAN) and Seppe Smits (BEL) both failed to reach the podium like last year. Seppe had the best results in the first round, but didn’t manage to land his three attempts in the second round. Seb’s cab 1260 double cork wasn’t good enough to beat Ulrik’s smooth double backside rodeo 12 Indy Grab, which gave him the highest score of the second round.
