Love ‘em or hate ‘em, it’s been a crazy year for comps.
Luckily, Aspen is used to hosting the world’s best comp skiers and so pulled things together.
Pipe should probably just be run at night though.
He took a huge crash on his first run and got back up in his indomitable style.
The man is a beast.

Highlights: Women’s
- Eileen Gu.
Stomped all three runs with laser precision.
Rachel Karker, both ways 9 japans with decent amplitude, a dope inverted 7 for second.
Zoe Aitken stomping both ways switch 7s, varied grabs.
Not the best amplitude but stomped her second and third runs.
Slightly loose at times but very lit.
Went absolutely massive on all three runs.
Not the most technical but definitely Newschoolers’ runs of the day.
- Simon D’Artois, crazy dub 10, set like a 12 and pulled back.
Super clean run, with style only his teammate Noah B can match.
Stepped it up for the final run with 5 dubs for the final run but missed a grab.
A trademark super-smooth and technical first run for provisional 3rd.
Unfortunately crashed hard on the second run and DNS on the third.
- Kevin Rolland back in the start gate and immediately getting bodied on the deck.
Impressive to walk away from a hit like that.
- Noah Bowman, insane switch bone role, switch to switch hits and flawless style.
His second run was a dub 12 away from being the most beautiful pipe run since Duncan Adams.
