RIDERS AWARDS: AUSTRIA AND FRANCE DOMINATE THE FIELD
European riders led the pack at the rider-judged awards ceremony on Saturday night, claiming all but two award categories.
Dorian Macher (AUT) won the New Nine prize for the best newcomer, while Nines stalwart Peter Kaiser (AUT) was picked for the High Vibe Award by GoPro.
The inventive riding of Tomas Lemoine (FRA) was deemed worthy of the Creative Edge award, while the promising young talent Lisa-Marie Blanc (FRA) took home the Women’s Best Trick award. Americans Dylan Stark and Kaidan Ingersoll locked down the Men’s Best Trick category, while freeride legend Bienvenido Aguado (ESP) maintained his stranglehold on Best Line, winning the award for the sixth time in nine appearances at the Nines.
Last but not least, Tim Bringer (FRA) and Patricia Druwen (GER) were crowned as the MVPs of week.
