Hampus Mosesson 2nd at Freestyle.ch Big Air 2008 - Congrats to Hampus Mosesson for taking 2nd place this past weekend in Zurich, Switzerland for the Freestyle.ch 2008 Big Air Event.  Hampus stomping a Backside 9 Mute to Shifty secured him the 2nd place podium spot.

The three day event with over 45,000 spectators piling into  Zurich’s Landiwiese were witness to world class snowboarders hucking themselves off the massive kicker.

A stacked talent pool of snowboarders including Hampus Mosesson, Stefan Gimpl, Scotty Lago, Eero Ettala, Antti Autti, Andreas Wiig, Mikkel Bang, David Benedek, Mathieu Crepel, Elias Elhardt, Colin Frei, Marko Grilc, Torstein Horgmo, Tim Humphreys, Markus Keller, Reto Kestenholz, Danny Larsen, Wang Lei, Arthur Longo, Risto Mattilam, Stephan Maurer, Wolfgang Nyvelt, Peetu Piiroinen, Iouri Podladtchikov, Chris Sörman, and Takato Taniguchi.

OK President, Erwin Flury, following the Super Finals said “I didn’t think anything could beat last year’s event, but I was wrong. freestyle.ch 2008 has exceeded everything that has ever come before it. We’ve really reached higher ground - both terms of the sports and the atmosphere. The expansion of both the infrastructure as well as the program for Friday and Saturday has obviously paid off”
