Both!
I'd agree more style.
Holding a grab denotes holding body position. This is a style component of a trick.
Technical means spinning more, flipping more, or otherwise making the trick harder.
When you judge, you usually have three main categories - style, Degree of Difficulty, and how big they went.

Sorry you're completely right. Landing is absolutely EVERYTHING.
I think I just was separating the judging of the trick out from the landing. I know when I've judged, landing was a separate part of the score, because it could simply crush whatever you did on the other part.
I mean if you don't land, who gives a rats dick what you did in the air?

YES!
i say technical. just because you grab does not mean it was stylish. yes a grab can be stylish, thats for the most part why people do them. but i think grabs add technical difficulty to a trick not necessarily style. the best way to prove my point is to look at mfm. yes he grabs sometimes but he also does a lot of tricks without grabbing, probably the only snowboarder that can get away with it because he has such smooth style.
