Ready to send it! Eileen Gu, Alex Hall and other skiers are bringing their biggest tricks to stomp their runs at the 2022 Winter Olympics. Athletes competing in ski slopestyle, big air and halfpipe are scored in five categories: amplitude, difficulty, variety, execution and progression. These are key when it comes to skiers who share tricks with competitors. Points can be earned by performing a variety of different ski grabs, spinning in different directions and landing cleanly. The difference between gold and silver could be decided by something as small as a more technical grab or a different spin.

Check out the trademark tricks from top skiers.
