We don’t speak German so we really have no business making fun of anyone who is bi-lingual, however, the information on the 2009 Billabong Air & Style scheduled for December 5, 2009 (we think) in Innsbruk, Austria’s Bergisel Stadium was nearly impossible for us to figure out.
Getting a position in the starting field was in great demand but now the 16 pros are confirmed and they will be on parade on 05.12.2009 in Innsbruck. The new setup will challenge the rider a lot: they will start 50 meters above zero; with an inrun of ca. 70 meters and a slope of 45° the rider get on the ground again after 30 meters and an awesome trick. The best jump gives the winner 1.000 points in the Swatch TTR World Tour, the Ring of Glory and the biggest Part of the prize money of € 75.000.
For a list of people who we think are going to be in the contest follow the jump. Thanks to Method Mag for helping us out with the details.
