That's a wrap on day one of X Games Aspen 2026. In the freeski world, the weekend started off with Women's Knuckle Huck, Women's SuperPipe and Men's Big Air. Clouds gathered early in the day, and by nightfall, the snow was coming down. But with winds staying under control and these skiers hungry to throw down, the show went on!

Below you'll find highlights, recap and podium results for each of the three events that went down on Sunday, January 25. And catch up with our full overviews from days one and two.

Women's Slopestyle

The women came to play out here as the weather cleared up and the final day of X Games Aspen 2026 kicked off. The massive slopestyle course would send many running for the hills, but not this crew. Finals consisted of a tight battle between Anni Kärävä, Mathilde Gremaud, Megan Oldham, Kirsty Muir and Naomi Urness. It was the legendary Gremaud who took the bronze, trying her best to keep speed, as each competitor struggled wth that given the sticky snow.

Naomi Urness made her X Games debut this year and bagged an 85.00 on her first run, the first of the field. It was enough to secure the silver, but not enough to knock off the veteran Kirsty Muir. Muir had missed the last two X Games due to injury, but she came back hungry for the win. Her technicality in the rail section impressed the judges, and a right-side dub 10 sealed the win.

Women's Big Air

After being delayed from Saturday to Sunday, it was time for Women's Big Air. The storm moved back into the valley, making speed a big factor and causing riders to utilize a slingshot from coaches down the in run. With overlapping faces from Slopestyle earlier in the day, we saw Anni Kärävä, Mathilde Gremaud, Megan Oldham, Kirsty Muir, Anastasia Tatalina and Naomi Urness on course. The competition was steep, with the top three separated by just 4.66 points.

Bronze went to Megan Oldham, who locked down an impressive 90 with a huge left mute 1260. The silver medal was taken by Scotland's Kirsty Muir, after Muir had already won gold in slopestyle just hours prior. Her three runs just got better every time, landing a dub 16 on her final lap to earn a 94. But she was just 0.44 points shy of the champ, Mathilde Gremaud. Her stylish left nose butter 1260 had the crowd on their feet as she secured her 11th X Games medal, marking her fourth gold in Big Air.

Men's SuperPipe

Men's SuperPipe had the honor to cap off an already incredible weekend. Under the lights, one of the most stacked rosters in X Games history was prepared to do battle in the 22-foot wall of ice. Of every discipline here at X Games and in freeskiing at large, this roster is a true gamble in terms of who ends up on the podium. With no clear favorite, we were fired up.

Going into the final runs of the night, Ferreira, the hometown hero, needed a monster run to move into the top three. He got it, going gigantic and locking down a switch double cork 1080 and a 1620 to close it out. The mood was electric as he was bumped into second place, moving Goepper out of the top three. But then it was Goepper's turn. The talent from Indiana didn't back down, ending a huge run with a switch bio 9 and promptly snapping his poles over his legs out of excitement. A 92.00 was enough to move him into second, bumping Alex into third.

And as if it couldn't get any better, the young Finley Melville-Ives, already sitting in first with a 93.00, was now in the start gate. He could have played it easy... but he didn't. The 19-year-old from New Zealand put on a clinic, going bigger than anyone (20 feet above the deck), and somehow besting his previous score to win with a 95.00. It was truly the fairytale ending to an already fantastic weekend.
