Zoi Sadowski-Synnott
In 2023, X Games Aspen 2022 double gold medalist Zoi Sadowski-Synnott successfully defended her Slopestyle gold to open X Games Aspen. While the Kiwi was the far and away favorite in Slopestyle, her good friend (and fellow Oceanian) Tess Coady didn’t make it easy on her. Coady forced a heavy pressure situation and the gold wasn’t secured until the very last run of the competition. Sadowski-Synnott struggled with slow course conditions in her first three passes but came up huge under pressure for walk-off gold.
