In the Women's Ski Slopestyle event, Kaya Turski and Tiril Sjastad Christiansen will once again do battle after trading off gold and silver medals last year. It doesn't exactly bring the same type of excitement that Moto-X does for the Summer X-Games, but the snowmobile events always bring some of the biggest highlights. LaVallee, one of the most polarizing figures in the sport, will once again take the stage looking to add to his medal collection. The year-old returned to the Winter X-Games last season to take home the Snowmobile Freestyle gold medal.

With seven medals at the X-Games in his career, LaVallee has a lot of competition in the field. With Joe Parsons, Heath Frisby and Chris Burandt are all looking to take the top spot in the long jump and with the freestyle competition still around there will be a huge field looking to knock LaVallee off the top spot.

It's impossible to talk about snowboarding without mentioning White's name. What Tony Hawk did for skateboarding during his career is mirrored only by what White has done for the extreme snowboarding scene. But with the Winter Olympics coming up in February and crashing late last week , it appeared White might not compete in the Winter X-Games. On Tuesday, White officially announced that he would compete in the SuperPipe and Slopestyle competitions, according to SportsCenter's Twitter account:.

The women's ski Slopestyle event featured some of the more interesting stories from the weekend. Kaya Turski, who had torn her ACL just five months before the X Games, found a way to come back and compete like she usually does, earning her fourth career gold medal in the X Games. However, the bigger surprise from the event came from Maggie Voisin. At just 15 years old, she found a way to win the silver medal with a best score of Voisin started with a strong She didn't have the best final run, but still posted a respectable That kind of consistency says a lot about a skier, and for Voisin to do it at just 15 years old is quite the accomplishment.

What's next for Maggie? She'll be heading to Sochi as well as a member of the U. There are few moments in sports that are truly inspiring, but what Colten Moore did in this year's X Games will be remembered for a very long time. Anthes said the network would be happy to participate in future planning for X Games. I think they are probably the gold standard for events that we should hold other events to.
