Samuel Jaroš finished 4th in the M Big Air

 

Missed the bronze by 4 points...oh well, still the best ever male result behind Radoslav Židek era (the guy who won our first winter Olympic medal since the independence in Torino 2006 Snowboard-Cross)

Kokomo Murase, 13 years old, is destroying all the 2-3-4 years older opposition on both big air and slopestyle

 

It'd be really cool if there's a new generation coming up who could actually lift women's snowboarding up from the depths.

Ever heard of Chloe Kim? Murase is a great talent, but many japanese talents start to stagnate at a rather young age, she still has a long way to go if she wants to challenge Chloe Kim.

Edit: Happy about the results of men's snowboard slopestyle?

Great result for Germany in women's snowboard slopestyle, silver medal for Annika Morgan (born in 2002, she will be able to compete the next 2 years as well at junior level). I don't think Germany ever won a medal in that event, alongside with Leilani Ettel who won bronze in the halfpipe at the junior world championships last year, Germany finally has some hope in freestyle snowboarding. It took Germany very long to develop talents in the new freestyle skiing/snowboard events, but better late than never ... In women's slopestyle/big air/halfpipe snowboarding Germany has Annika Morgan, Leilani Ettel and Kona Ettel (born in 2007, 4th at the world rookie finals this year) and in women's slopestlye/big air/halfpipe freestyle skiing Germany has Lisa Zimmermann and Sabrina Cakmakli who both won junior world titles a couple of years ago.
