I’m sure you all saw on the web the pictures of the wonderful snow castle in Livigno. Everything was perfectly settled for the Suzuki Nine Knights event, probably one of the most suggestive of the winter. And the riding level was surely not less than the scenario! Federico Quaglino was there and was literally stocked by the event. He sent us the gnarly pics you see in this article!

The Big Air competition on saturday saw Kai Mahler (SUI) as winner in front of Gus Kenworthy (USA) and Jonas Hunziker (SUI).

And here is an overview on all riding category winners:

Best Big Air overall: Tom Wallisch
Best Rail rider overall: Gus Kenworthy
Best Style trick: Lolo Favre (Flatspin 540 screamin´seaman, nose grab)
Big Air contest: 1st Kai Mahler, 2nd Gus Kenworthy, 3rd Jonas Hunziker
MVP of the week: Roy Kittler

The winner of probably the most important category of the event was Tom Wallisch, who received the title “Best overall ruler of the week on the kicker” and took home nothing less than the new Suzuki Nine Knights I pad and the special Nine Knights ring from Jewelry Köblinger in Innsbruck. Also the other winners took home great prizes.
