Finnish super shredder Eero Ettala has beaten off some seriously tough competition to win the Winter X Games Slopestyle event.
He managed to fend off Norway's Torstein Horgmo and Mikkel Bang with a breathtaking run that included a backside cork 1080, double backside rodeo 900 and a switch double backflip!
This is the first time Eero has managed to get on the podium at the Winter X Games. If he maintains this form, an Olympic gold medal could be well within his reach.
