Ahmet's right, when Freeskiing was introduced to the Olympics, the whole freeski scene was forced to take a look at itself and get it together so that skiers could be understood by the mainstream viewers & audience or as Ahmet says, "button up". My question is; does that have to continue? Do we...

This season, I jumped to the dark side of skiing. Judging contests is an interesting challenge, pressure-filled and fun all at once. I’ve visited top-tier resorts, met my idols, and learned a lot about the state of skiing. Judging is not easy. Every skier thinks they deserve to win, and we don’t...

In this episode, we sit down with Mac Forehand. Mac is a 20 year old from Connecticut in the middle of a ski season that includes first time appearances in the X Games and the Olympics. Although he didn't podium in Beijing, he took home a Big Air silver in Aspen after getting in as an alternate...

The sun has set on another Olympic year; this year seeing skiing’s third inclusion and the debut of big air at The Games. Competition in freeskiing always brings controversy and innovation, often in equal measure. This year was no different. Although skiing managed to stay somewhat out of the...

After a four-year wait, the Olympics have passed in a flash. Saturday morning (in China) saw the last freeski event of the Beijing games go down in Genting. This was a final stacked with legends; Gus Kenworthy, Keven Rolland, and David Wise are all still at the top of the game, mixing it with...

The penultimate freeski event of these games saw the women take to the stunt ditch. Since their arrival in Beijing, we've heard from both the women and men of the games that this was one of, if not the, best halfpipes they've ever skied. The innovative 'wind wall', aimed at protecting the pipe...

Conditions deteriorated so quickly, even just since the women had their shot at the pipe a couple of hours ago. The sun disappeared and the snow started coming down in sheets, making it tough for many of the guys to lace the runs they were hoping for. Highlights Run 1: Brendan Mackay Such a...

The women get the jump on the men today and are given the first shot in the pipe. Imagine the nerves heading into an event like this as a competitor, get ready for the start of the best, of the best. Highlights Run 1: Karker set her run off with a bang, back-to-back 9s on her second and...

It's fair to say that slopestyle is probably the most tightly contested of the freeski disciplines at the Beijing Games. We certainly didn't call today's medalists (particularly one of them) ahead of time. Qualifying yesterday was ample evidence of what was in store for the finals and there was...

Cover: Freeski Sweden It was the men's turn to step up to the slopestyle course to show the world what they've got on a cold morning in Beijing. This is one of the biggest slopestyle courses we've seen in a while and they came out lacing runs straight away. This was another excellent display of...

Cover photo: Sam Mellish It's fair to say that the slopestyle women have not had the luck of the draw these Olympics. With qualifying postponed two days ago, and then contested in freezing cold conditions yesterday, they were due a break for the finals. Qualis saw Sarah Hoefflin miss the cut...

Cover: Swiss Freeski // Skier: Mathilde Greamud Women's slopestyle kicked things off this morning in Beijing at the Genting Snowpark having been rescheduled from yesterday; postponed, thankfully, due to high winds and snowfall. The conditions were a lot better than yesterday although still...
