The contest was all but over. Kevin Pearce sat in first place, and Shaun White sat in nearly last place, with falls in his first two runs. But White qualified first in prelims, which meant he would get the last go at it. He had one more chance.

Shaun White finished eighth to barely qualify for Saturday's snowboard slopestyle final, but that's somewhat misleading because most competitors struggled in blizzard conditions during Friday's qualifying session at Aspen's Buttermilk Mountain.
However, Shaun got his Slopestyle redemption this year gapping the new channel on the course to ride away with the gold. This video of his winning run is sick!!!
