SATURDAY MARCH 17TH, 2007 STRATTON, VERMONT. Antti Autti finished second in the final TTR World Rankings to Shaun White. A strange set of judge’s scores in the final TTR 5-star event, the US Open Superpipe, was all that kept him from the title. This was enough to give Shaun White the title by a mere 21 points. Scotty Lago ended up 10th, Risto Mattila was 14th, Tim Humphreys was 18th and Jeremy Thompson 24th in the final TTR World Rankings.

Risto rode hard and landed a variety of tricks, front 3 shifty, backside rodeo, bs 7 molester, switch backside 9, cab 9, front 9 and cab 10......
