MNSS SNOWBOARDER TORSTEIN HORGMO TAKES 2ND IN BIG AIR AND CHAS GULDEMOND TAKES 3RD IN SLOPESTYLE AT THE WINTER X GAMES 14



The Sports Syndicate’s Torstein Horgmo and Chas Guldemond both earned medals at Winter X Games 14. In Big Air, Torstein Horgmo set down 1260s galore, both a Cab 1260 and switch backside 1260 along with a savage backside 1080. However, it appeared that the judges were rewarding inverted tricks, and so not throwing a double cork held him in 2nd place for the Silver medal. Torsein would like to thank his sponsors DC, Monster Energy, Oakley, Vestal, Park City, and Kicker. In Slopestyle, Chas Guldemomd stomped his line on the course and hung in there for a 3rd place finish and the Bronze medal. Chas rocked a back rodeo off the cannon feature, then slapped down a Cab 10, a switch backside 900, and a backside 1080 through the kicker line for podium-place number three. Chas would like to thank his sponsors Rockstar Energy Drink, Electric, Under Armour, Hatch Ltd and Porters.
