Eiki, short for Eirikur, is an incredibly talented rail rider, capable of complex spins into his grinds, slides and presses. He's like his younger brother Halldor in that sense, another WX '10 Slopestyle competitor. Eiki says he needs to work on his backcountry skills, but he does have solid spins, including 1080s and Rodeos. Watch for him to be solid on the jumps and above-average on the rails, but it might be hard for him to make a run at the podium.
