Event Report

 The fourth edition of Burn River Jump has come to a close and Yale Cousino (USA) is the winner for the third time of the super final at the Spoel River here in Livigno, Italy.

After seeing optimal conditions during those 2 days with bluebird skies, the weather took a turn for the worse with strong wind and frigid temps making for challenging riding during the qualifications of this afternoon.

Then the weather turned again and the super final took place with perfect weather condition in a sick slopestyle course made by Doors Snowpark Structures in Livigno downtown: straight jump of 19 meters and a huge River Jump gap of 12 meters ending in the jib arena full of Burn cans, stairs, butter boxes and 1 wall ride at the end.

Yale Cousino winning run featured backside 1260 on the straight jump, cab 540 on the Spoel River gap and backside 270 on the Burn can.

Yale also won the “Best Jibber by Burn” thanks to the backside 270 on the can of his winning run.

On the Swatch TTR World Snowboard Tour, Gjermund Braaten, who came second today, made a huge jump into third rank on the TTR world ranking list. "This is a dream come true to me", he says after the prize giving. Janne Korpi now sits in World No. 5 while Eric Willett entered the Top 10. The Burn River Jump is a 5Star event on the Tour and gives out 850 TTR ranking points to the winner.

After 3 days full of thrilling show, Burn River Jump is absolutely the best italian event ever!!
