USA's double Olympic champion in the snowboard halfpipe Chloe Kim returned from a break from the sport in 2022-23 and looks rejuvenated. With an array of new moves and a happier outlook on life, the 2025 X Games champion will be a star of the show.

New Zealand's reigning slopestyle Olympic champion Zoi Sadowski-Synott will be a big contender in her favourite event having also taken home the most recent X Games crown.

Elsewhere, expect a colossal battle between evergreen Austrian Anna Gasser and Britain's Mia Brookes, who have both won slopestyle World Cups this season.

On the men's side, PyeongChang 2018 Olympic champion Red Gerard will be one of Team USA's top hopes - having been a regular podium finisher in this season's slopestyle World Cup - but will have to be at his best to overcome Canadian prodigy Cameron Spalding.

Japanese teenage star Hasegawa Taiga is the early favourite for gold in big air, while Olympic champion Hirano Ayumu and Hirano Ruka are set for an epic battle on the halfpipe.
