Corning Third at Air + Style Big Air World Cup

U.S. Snowboard Team member Chris Corning retained the yellow leader bib at the Air+Style FIS Snowboard World Cup with a third-place finish in Beijing, China. 

“I had a great time here in Beijing,” said Chris. "It’s great to see everyone ride really well and I am stoked to be apart of this crazy contest. Thanks to China for building a great jump and hosting an awesome event.”

Although the beautiful jump structure in Beijing can not be considered a scaffold jump, this is the first time Chris has landed his signature quad cork 1800 in a city big air! It paid dividends as he only finished behind Candian Max Parrot in first and ahead of Swedish snowboarder Sven Thorgren in third.
