Peetu Piiroinen has won the Men's Slopestyle contest at the Burton European Open in Laax, Switzerland.
The Finnish rider claimed another 1000 TTR points for winning this 6-star event beating Norwegians Mikkel Bang and Gjermund Braaten into second and third place respectively.
Bang took the idea of spin-to-win to a whole new level by landing a clean backside 1260, but Piiroinen managed to edge ahead by a single point to claim victory.
Roxy rider Enni Rukajärvi won the Women's Slopestyle final ahead of Sina Candrian and Sarka Pancochova.
The BEO wraps up tomorrow with the Halfpipe Finals.
