Who to Watch
Rell Harwood, who took gold in 2025 with a nose butter 1260, returns to the Knuckle Huck alongside fellow 2025 podium finishers, Tereza Korabova and Anni Karava. Harwood will also compete in Big Air, which she finished in 4th place last year behind Flora Tabanelli, Grace Henderson, and Tess Ledeux, all of whom will return this year. Men's Knuckle Huck welcomes back 2025 gold medal finisher Alex Hall, as well as second, third, and fourth place skiers Matej Svancer, Juho Saastamoinen, and Colby Stevenson.
Superpipe favorites Cassie Sharpe, Fanghui Li, and Zoe Atkin will all take on the X Games this weekend before heading to the 2026 Milano Cortina Winter Olympic Games. On the men's side, breakout halfpipe star Nick Goepper and 2025 Gold Medalist join other pipe skiing heavy hitters Alex Ferreira and Hunter Hess, who stood on the 2025 podium with Goepper, as well as Fin Melville Ives and Birk Irving. Ives, Hess, and Goepper recently took the top three spots at the FIS World Cup Halfpipe finals.
