Will one of the Big Three prevail? Or will someone else sneak into a podium spot?
Women’s Big Air finals go down today in Livigno, Italy. It all starts at 1:30 p.m. Eastern Standard Time.
The easiest way to watch all the Olympic snowboarding you want is through NBC’s Peacock app. The premium with ads plan costs $11 a month, and the ad-free premium plus account costs $17 a month.
A live broadcast for traditional TV watchers will air on NBC at 1:30 p.m. as well.
Anna Gasser, of Austria, will try to do what no snowboarder has ever done before—win a third straight gold medal. To do so, she’ll have to get around Slopestyle and Big Air’s most dominant riders at the current moment: New Zealand’s Zoi Sadowski-Synnott, who took Big Air silver in the 2022 Olympics, Great Britain’s Mia Brookes, who just added her second career X Games gold to her trophy case, and Japan’s Kokomo Murase.
Murase is the first woman to land a switch 1620 in a contest, though due to the size of the jump, it’s unlikely that trick will come out this go-around.
Big Air Start List:
- Zoi Sadowski-Synnott
