Nine out of ten international super-names will arrive straight from Munich SIX(6)STAR Nokia Air&Style in an onslaught of the world's top inner city contests. The tenth, TTR patron Terje Haakonsen (NOR), makes a welcome reappearance in Tokyo after his Nissan X-trail Jam 2005 5th place Big Air result.
Also returning to adoring fans, and looking to retain his X-Trail 2006 Big Air title win and overall Big Air/Quarterpipe 2nd place is the strapping TTR 06/07 World Nr 3, Travis Rice (USA).
All-rounder and TTR 05/06 World Nr 2 Risto Mattila (FIN) will, no doubt, be motivated to better his 3rd place overall finish from 2006. TTR 05/06 World Champion and X-Trail Big Air 2nd place podium star, Mathieu Crepel (FRA), also holds the flag for Europe as he competes against the best of the rest of the world in the last TTR men's event of 2007.
The SIX(6)STAR Nissan X-trail Jam 07 takes place from December 08-09, 2007 at the Tokyo Dome, Tokyo, Japan. www.x-trailjam.net
