X-Games is one of my favourite comps that I am doing and it’s always great to be back, but this year was pretty special for me. This was my first time doing all three disciplines at X-Games: slopestyle, halfpipe and big air.
I had no idea what Gus Kenworthy and Devin Logan have felt, it’s not easy at all, so respect guys! The schedule was super tight, my body felt really tired all the time and it just takes a lot of energy from you. Somehow I had a chance to get 3 medals in 26 hours, but I’m glad it’s over for now 🙂 and I can rest a bit before World Champs, where I am doing again all three. But how it all worked for me? Check it out from the vlog 🙂 And thanks X-Games, can not wait for the next year.
Most X Games Medals as a Teen in the History – Vlog 17
Release date: January 26, 2022
2022 started with a journey. We flew to US on the first days of January to compete there, but unfortunately our luggage was left behind in Europe. After few days nobody hadn’t delivered our bags and by that time I wasn’t sure if I can even compete because I didn’t have my clothes, my ski gear or my knee brace, which was the most important piece missing. But then Mike went on a 34h journey to get our bags to Mammoth that I could still compete, but this trip wasn’t too smooth either.
In the end everything still turned out great and I was able to land my runs.
After the World Cups in Mammoth we went to Los Angeles for a week (this vlog will be dropping some other time), just to relax before the XGames. And I’m happy to tell you that luckly we didn’t have any issues when travelling to XGames, everything went as planned, thank god! This year I decided to compete only in Slopestyle and Halfpipe. The past years it’s been super hard to do all three, it’s hard both menatlly and physically so I just wanted to focus more on Slope and Pipe. I feel it was a smart decision. First I had Halfpipe finals on Friday which went super well! I won my second Halfpipe gold at XGames and became the most XGames medals won teen in XGames history – wow! Sadly the next day didn’t go so well. I fell on my first run on the second rail and hit my head a little so I decided to pull out from the comp, which again was a smart move I think. It wasn’t anything serious and right now I’m back to full health so you don’t have to worry about me!
