At the Beijing 2022 Olympic Winter Games, Max Parrot won the big air snowboarding qualifying on Monday, February 14.
Canada’s Parrot is on cloud nine after his spectacular slopestyle gold medal triumph, and he might be on for a golden double in Tuesday’s big air final, which drew a lot of attention on Valentine’s Day.
When is Men’s Snowboarding Olympics 2022
The 27-year-old athlete’s 78.25 in Run 1 and 86.50 in Run 2 for a 164.75 total at the big air Shougang site demonstrated his skill.
In Run 3, he attempted an 18 spinning cab, but he slipped out by leaning back. In the final, he plans to land the trick.
The large air category at the Beijing Olympics is one of the most exciting and unexpected events, with riders frequently exchanging places on the podium and anyone being able to win on any given day.
The 20-year-old Japanese Otsuka Takeru, who has already shown that he has podium potential by qualifying in second place with a cumulative score of 160, is one such example.
Takeru came in second, while Red Gerard took third after landing a fantastic switch backside 16 on his final run to secure his position.
Kunitake Hiroaki of Japan came in at number four, and Su Yiming of China, a rising star at the tender age of seventeen, took the fifth spot.
If Su had been able to maintain his frontside 18 in Run 3, his score would have been even higher. We should all brace for impact if he manages to land it in the championship match.
