Check out ya boy Halldor warming up for the upcoming X Games slopestyle. No Lobster board yet, just good old fashioned Bataleon TBT to help him suck up the flat landing and let him get away with a bit under-rotated back 12 double dipper. And there’s even a cameo from that Shaun White chap looking disturbingly like a biker chick in his tight leather/helmet/flowing mane getup. BRING US THE HEAD OF THE LOBSTER!

Awards Awards Awards… and X Games GOLD for Halldór Helgason

2010 seems to be a good year for the Helgasons. They were busy competing at the Winter X Games in Aspen and collecting several awards last week.

We are proud to congratulate Eiki for the TWS Readers Choice Award and Halldór for two (yes he won both!) Rookie of the Year Awards. Snowboarder Mag Rookie of the Year 2010 and TWS Rookie of the Year. Have a look at helgasons.com for some pics and a little video of Eikis victory speech and the TWSNOW article of the 11th Annual TWS Riders Poll Awards

Blue Tomato teamrider Halldor Helgason just won the X Games Big Air!

After his first place at the Slopestyle Qualification on Saturday (got 8th in the finals cause he couldn’t stomp all his tricks) he owned the X Games Big Air Event with an undefeatable score.
Halldor pulled a double-cork fs10 and a double-cork bs12 in his first two runs… Two times perfect score of 50 points!
