TOP PICKS WOMEN
Zoi Sadowski-Synnott (NZL)
Odds: 1.83 - 2.07
Coming off gold in both slopestyle and big air at the 2022 Winter X Games, it seems like the Kiwi has hit peak form just in time for the Olympics. Zoi Sadowski-Synnott is also the bookmakers top pick for the gold medal.
Jamie Anderson (USA)
Odds: 3.50 - 3.75
Our next pick needs no introduction. Jamie Anderson is the defending Olympic champion and has been the face of women’s snowboarding for almost a decade. Anderson who also won slopestyle gold at the 2014 Olympics is looking to make history and three-peat in the slopestyle event.
Anna Gasser (AUT)
Odds: 12.00 - 13.30
Third, on our list is Anna Gasser. Priced between 12.00 - 13.30 by the bookmakers, the Austrian who won big air gold at the 2018 Winter Olympics is competing in her third Olympics and if you are looking for value Gasser is not a bad bet.
TOP PICKS MEN
Mark McMorris (CAN)
Odds: 4.00 - 4.50
The Canadian recently claimed gold at the 2022 Winter X Games and seems to have found his form after a rocky start to the season. Even though McMorris is one of the most decorated snowboarders of all time, he is missing an Olympic gold, will this be his year? We and most bookmakers think so.
Redmond Gerard (USA)
Odds: 5.40 - 6.50
The defending Olympic slopestyle champion from 2018 is looking to defend his title. Priced at 5.40 - 6.50 by the bookmakers I can think of worse ways to spend my money.
Marcus Kleveland
Odds: 4.00 - 6.10
With silver in slopestyle and gold in big air recently at the 2022 Winter X Games, the Norwegian is definitely one of the favorites and offers slightly more value than McMorris.
TWO TO WATCH
Rene Rinnekangas (FIN)
Odds: 13.00 - 17.00
Sven Thorgren (SWE)
Odds: 16.00 - 26.00
