Representing the United States – far and away the most successful nation in Olympic snowboarding history – Chloe Kim is the undisputed queen of the women’s halfpipe. The disciplines of slalom, snowboard cross, halfpipe and slopestyle/big air will all be featured on the tour. From old favourites like legend Shaun White and the dominant 21-year-old sensation Chloe Kim (on the men’s and women’s halfpipe respectively) to young and up-and-coming stars in the making like Japan’s ONO Mitsuki and USA’s 18-year-old Dusty Henricksen in Big Air/Slopestyle, the 2021/22 snowboarding world cup promises, as always, speed, high flight and daredevilry aplenty. The world’s top snowboarders will be on hand and aiming to sharpen their form and tighten their best tricks ahead of the Beijing Games which run from 4-20 February, 2022.
