X Games: Izzy Atkin wins ski slopestyle silver

Atkin became the first British skier to win a medal at a Winter Olympics in 2018

Briton Izzy Atkin won a ski slopestyle silver medal at the X Games in Aspen, Colorado.

But the Olympic medallist also crashed on her fourth run and had to be carried off the course on a stretcher.

GB Snowsport said she had been discharged from Aspen Valley Hospital on Saturday after having tests.

Atkin confirmed on Sunday she had suffered a concussion adding: "Thanks for all the well wishes everyone! I'm doing all right."

She added: "Stoked with my skiing though. Thanks X Games for such a fun week."

China's Eileen Gu won gold and became the first woman to claim three medals at her first X Games, as she also won the superpipe and was third in big air.

She said: "It's the best two days of my life, hands down. I'm so grateful for an experience I'll never forget."

Canada's Megan Oldham took bronze.

It was the second X Games medal for Atkin, who won silver in the same event in 2018.

Three other British freestyle skiers are competing at the X Games - Izzy's sister Zoe, James Woods and Gus Kenworthy.

On Friday Izzy Atkin finished sixth in big air with sister Zoe fourth in the superpipe.

Kenworthy, who used to compete for the US, was sixth in the men's superpipe competition.

Double Olympian and four-time X Games medallist Woods competed in big air on Saturday, finishing seventh.

Ski slopestyle, snowboard big air and superpipe will round off the X Games action on Sunday.

Meanwhile, at a Europa Cup slopestyle event at Crans Montana in Switzerland, 14-year-old British snowboarder Mia Brookes finished second - her second podium in her debut season.
