Steele Spenceis an American who, like Belanger, is a bit of a legend in freeskiing.
Currently, he is the General Manager of the Association of Freeskiing Professionals and a partner with 4FRNT.
You’ll see different grabs, different axes putting a huge variety together.
He was part of theGpsy FeelinCrew that included the likes of Leo Taillefer and Julian Lange.
Arnaud Cottet|| Predominantly a freerider, Cottets only competition skiing days were in slalom during the early 2000s.
He was a judge at Dew Tour as well as recent Olympic qualifier events.
Ole Kristian Strmis clearly stoked on skiing.
His competition career began as a ski jumper before switching to freeriding in 2006.
But like Cotett, as far as we can tell he’s never been a slopestyle skier.
Strm already has five years of judging experience under his belt and is the AFP Head Judge in Norway.
Let’s hope best runs take home the medals in a few days time.
