event coverage

Women's Slope was the penultimate ski event at this year's X, and perhaps one of the most exciting. The level of women's skiing is going through the roof right now. We're going to go out on a limb and say that it's becoming more fun to watch than the men's events these days and slope was no...

Early Saturday afternoon saw a new event go down at X, with the organizers finally giving the ladies a shot at the X Games Knuckle and it was sick to watch. Initially, you could see it was a new event, but the riders were clearly feeding off each other's energy while feeling it out. In the end...

Cover: If only the judges had this graphic ;) With Big Air barely more than twelve hours before slope, we bet Max Moffat, A Hall and the Birkanator had some tired legs going into today's slopestyle. The slopestyle course was touted to boost creativity and X Games has a little more freedom in...

The slopes of Aspen eagerly await the world's top freestyle skiers and snowboarders, it's X Games season. We couldn't think of anything better to do to hype it up, than gamble. So with the boss away actually doing work, we set up an in-office pool with predictions. Then we figured, it makes...

The head-to-head format returned to X games for 2024, but this time bringing skiing's own SLVSH into the mix. A stacked field of men and women took on the unique but simple rail set-up, with tricks being deemed as a make or not by the legendary crew of Tom Wallisch, Charlie Lasser and Pete...

This year, with the awards going fully virtual (shout out to Swany Gloves @ON3P & @Windells for making these awards possible), we are taking the opportunity to shed some clarity on what each award means, and the judging process. Trick of the Year is voted by you guys, so no judging was required...

Laax Open is probably the biggest gathering of [comp] skiers and snowboarders on the planet. It all went down this weekend, and the final event was Ski Slopestyle. The weather has been up and down all week, but for finals today it was pretty good, with the course running fast and plenty of blue...

Rider led, rider judged and frankly, just a ton of fun, the Nendaz Backcountry Invitational went down this morning in the best conditions it has ever had. Europe is having a good season for the first time since the competition began but that posed some problems for the build team, who had to put...

We’re stoked to be heading back to the Beast of the East, Woodward Killington for our fifth annual online contest, giving anyone the chance to throw down their best tricks for a shot at the cash prizes. Not to sugar coat it, it's been a rough start to the season out East, so we're hoping the...

For Christmas I headed back to my Atlantic Canadian homeland with hopes of doing some skiing. The tide was incredibly low across the region and our local wasn't even open, but my brother @TBONE902 and I managed to harvest enough snow with the side by side to build some jibs in the Nova Scotia...

Cover Photo: Mike Dawson Highlights The women kicked things off, with lots of 1080s being thrown down it was Tess Ledeux who turned things up a notch. She laced her signature left dub 16 tindy - probably the cleanest one we've seen from her ever. She stomped it for a massive 95.75. From this...

Cover photo: Bucholz/FIS We're not going to profess to understand pipe skiing anymore. Sure, we can (mostly) count the rotations, but pipe is now so far removed from our collective experience that at this point, every run looks impossible. There are some cool new tricks on show though. We like...

Cover Photo: Buchholz/@fisfreestyle After two cancelled finals, we finally got a Big Air showdown at the World Cup in Beijing. Riders, all using poles, threw down at the infamous city big air in Shougang. Amongst the backdrop of cooling towers, the dystopian venue kicked off in calm weather, a...

Which skis should I buy? The faction progidy 2.0 or k2 poacher? All mountain
