Torstein burst on the scene to beat Travis Rice with a Winter X-Games Gold in 2008, and has stayed firmly put in the top tier of competitive snowboarding ever since.
His trophy shelf is creaking under the strain of multiple victories, but he’s just as well known for making barnstorming video parts – including the ender of 2011’s The Storming, which fully unveiled the world’s forst triple cork. He’s just as happy making pisstake webisodes with his Shredbots buddies, proving time and again that you can win comps without taking yourself too seriously.
