Suzuki Nine Knights 2014: The Highlights

The Suzuki Nine Knights competition in Livigno, Italy is known as one of the quirkiest, most massive park events in history. From the perfectly shaped castle-esque feature to possibly the single most progressive session of the year, Nine Knights never fails to impress–and 2014 it lived up to that legend, with four different triple corks, countless backflips and more spins that a ferris wheel.

Eight skiers braved the 28-metre central kicker for the finals, with Sweden’s Oscar Wester taking first place with a triple cork 1620 and switch 1440, 17-year-old Swiss skier Luca Schuler in second, and fellow countryman Jesper Tjäder in third.
