Andrew Hourmont, founder of the Air & Style: „Neither snowboarders nor fans let the weather deter or intimidate them at all and showed the world, as they have done in all of the previous years, what the Air & Style stands for. Air & Style is sports, music and fun, whether temperatures are -20 C° or +10 C°. And year after year the riders raise their game and boost their trick portfolio even more.”
