Posted by Mr OFF On December - 1 - 2008

 

The count down is on… The first 6 Star men’s title for the 0809 season is up for grabs. The Nissan X-Trail Jam in Tokyo Dome is set to push the level of competition once again. With the likes of Travis Rice against a star studded line up including Terje Hakonsen , Peetu Piiroinen, Andreas Wiig, Risto Mattila, Nicolas Müller, Torstein Horgmo, Chas Guldemond and Sebastien Toutant It is set to be a battle  with 6 of Japans best riders over a 2 day Quarter Pipe & Big Air event.

 

TTR caught up with Travis Rice at the “THATS IT THATS ALL” premiere in Munich a few weeks back and this is what Travis had to say

“I so looking forward to coming to the Nissan X-Trail in just a couple of weeks. As we’ve all seen over the years, it’s going to be a battle of nations, a battle of wits, battle of skills. Nissan X-trail Jam in Tokyo Dome its coming up all so quickly and I’m looking forward to it”  Travis Rice

 The 16 year young Sebastien Toutant received a late invitation on his merits of both quarter pipe riding and big air trickery. Including his own version of the backside double cork…Check the video out here for a tease of what’s to come from the young gun

We got this out of the shy French Canadian Sebastien just after hearing about his invite.

“I think this contest will have good crowd, good riders, a perfect jump and a lot of fun” Sebastien Toutant .

Well not exactly fighting words, but I’m sure the 45,000 strong crazed Japanese fans will fire the young fellow up.Check out the event Teaser Video Below:
