Sixteen year old Seb Toots won the freestyle.berlin on the weekend with a perfect backside 1080 double cork – showing just why he is currently TTR World Tour number one.

“I am super excited to win,” said Seb “There were a lot of good riders there so it means a lot to me. It’s like a dream to come out first.”

The Canadian beat an impressive lineup at the big air contest in its first year in Berlin, taking victory over Eero Ettala and current TTR World Champ Peetu Piiroinen with his backside 1080 double cork. And he made it look easy. “I think the hard part about a backside 1080 double cork is learning it,” said Seb. “It’s always scary to try the first time, but once you can control it, it’s a great trick.”

His first place comes right after finishing second at the freestyle.ch a few weeks ago.

“Peetu and Eero are really good riders and you never know what they are gonna throw in the contest,” said Seb.“Eero got first place at freestyle.ch, and I got second so I am really stoked to be first this time with this good line up of riders.”
