Iouri "I-Pod" Podladtchikov Wins Silver Medal At X Games 2012
Posted Jan. 31, 2012, 8:52 a.m.
Vans Team Rider Iouri "IPod" Podladtchikov took home the Silver Medal in Superpipe at the Winter X Games 2012 in Aspen, Colorado. Coming in behind five time, back-to-back X Games Superpipe champion Shaun White and his perfect score of 100, IPod threw down the run of his life to earn a 93, and proved that he is the only current, real challenger to White's dominance in the halfpipe. It was a wild weekend at Winter X, as we also had Eric Willett competing in both Big Air and Slopestyle, and we were there to cover it all. There are lots of stories to share with you, so stay tuned for additional content coming throughout the week. In the meantime, check out our live posts from the entire event on vanssnow.tumblr.com, and enjoy this video of IPod's Silver Medal X Games run...
