TOP PICKS WOMEN
Eileen Gu (CHN)
Odds: 1.71 - 1.80
We have the Chinese - American skier who has been competing for China since 2019 as a slight favorite to win this event. Gu picked up two golds and a bronze at last year's World Championships and recently became the first woman to land a double cork 1440.
Tess Ledeux (FRA)
Odds: 3.50 - 4.10
Coming off gold in both slopestyle and big air at the 2022 Winter X Games. The Frenchwoman seems to have hit peak form and offers a bit more value than Gu and Sildaru.
Kelly Sildaru (EST)
Odds: 2.90 - 3.25
Sildaru has two World Cup wins this season and is considered to be the biggest threat to Eillen Gu by the bookmakers.
TOP PICKS MEN
Andri Ragettli (SUI)
Odds: 3.00 - 3.25
Ragettli seems to have picked up where he left off before suffering a knee injury at the end of last season. Picking up gold in slopestyle at the 2022 Winter X Games.
Alexander Hall (USA)
Odds: 5.50 - 6.65
The American is heading into the Olympics full of confidence, coming off a Big Air gold at the 2022 Winter X Games, where he stomped a double cork 2160 also known as a future spin.
Max Moffat (CAN)
Odds: 13.00 - 17.00
If you are looking for an outsider, Canada’s Max Moffat looks interesting. Coming off a silver at the 2022 Winter X Games, just behind favorite Andri Ragettli. Priced between 13.00 - 17.00 by the bookmakers, backing Moffat could lead to a nice payout.
