Andri Ragettli wins the silver medal in the freeski slopestyle at the X Games in Aspen. The winner is New Zealander Luca Harrington.
Harrington deserved to win. In both the first part of the final (playoffs) and the second part (final), the New Zealander achieved a score that Ragettli could not match in any of his (consistently good) four runs.
Nevertheless, Ragettli's heart was flying again in Aspen. In the last seven years, the 27-year-old from Graubünden has won seven medals in twelve starts at the X Games. He won the slopestyle in Aspen in 2020 and 2022, and also triumphed in the big air contest in 2021.
