Iouri made it! After his unlucky 4th place in Vancouver, he strikes back and wins the halfpipe contest at the first european x games in Tignes.

Iouri’s showed in his great final run Cab double cork 1080, inverted frontside 540 and then the trick that he learned a week ago (and landed on his second try) – the double McTwist 1260, aka Shaun White’s trick, in the middle of his run. He went on to lay down a frontside 1080 and Cab 720.. This run was scored with 98 points! What a dream result! And the highest in Winter X history.
