BEST OF Monster Energy Men’s Snowboard Slopestyle | X Games Aspen 2024

Watch the Monster Energy Men’s Snowboard Slopestyle highlights from X Games Aspen 2024!

What is Slopestyle?

Slopestyle is based on terrain parks that are found at many winter resorts. X Games Slopestyle courses usually are comprised of between 6 and 8 feature sections broken down into 3-4 “jibs” (sometimes known as a rail garden) and 3-4 jumps. Jibs are rails, boxes, cannons and other artificial obstacles designed to slide and trick onto/out of.

X Games jumps are huge, usually covering 55 to 70 feet in distance from takeoff to knuckle, which means athletes sometimes travel around 90 feet from takeoff to a jump’s landing’s sweetspot.

X-Games Aspen 2024 was insane!

Sven had a tough week with stomach pain and missing luggage. Still rode like a boss during the week and got 4th in Slopestyle.

Next up Mammoth Mountain and Slopestyle World Cup!

OBSIDIAN - Big Air!

Watch the first Obsidian episode here!! The Obsidian Big Air saw four international teams battle it out on the first challenge, at the massive Big Air venue on Cardrona Alpine Resort.

Obsidian is an exciting event which aims to think outside the box of traditional competition encouraging collaboration and creativity, along with a hefty dose of competitiveness!

The event is made up of three Challenges: Big Air, Park Challenge, and Backcountry Freestyle. Each challenge is contested by four teams: Americas, Asia, Europe, and Oceania. With 31 of the best riders in the world, split across four teams, the level of riding was out of this world.
