Air+Style LA 2016 – Mega Gallery

Glitz and glamour from LA. Kidding, here’s an eyeful of photographic snowboard candy from last weekend’s Air+Style in Los Angeles… 

The final stop on this season’s Air+Style Tour went down last weekend in the City of Angels, with Yuki Kadono taking the win on the night and Sven Thorgren sealing the Tour deal.

Our Photo Ed was winged in for a weekend in one of the biggest of smokes, and duly fired over some of his banging ones and zeroes from the event.

Scroll on down for a selection of the best shots…

Sven Thorgren’s third place was enough to earn him the overall Air+Style Tour title. And a big ring.
Ståle Sandbech didn't have the best day at the office as he missed out on the Super Final, but sending it at sunset in downtown LA kinda made up for it.

Too say that Roope Tonteri was stoked to stomp his back 14 would be an understatement. His FUUUUUUCCKK YEEEEEAAHH is still reverberating round the streets of LA.
Sebbe de Buck sees his own future in the crystal ball. And it’s bright.

Peetu Piiroinen shut the sun down with this.
Sebbe de Buck has got so much style. It's even more impressive when you discover he's actually a babyfaced giant.
