TOP PICKS FOR THE BEIJING 2022 OLYMPIC GAMES SNOWBOARD BIG AIR
The last snowboarding event of the Beijing 2022 Olympic Games will be the Big Air event, with qualification runs on February 14 and finals on February 15. Going by the odds on offer, it is the usual suspects as favorites and all of them evenly priced.
Below you will find our top picks for both the men’s and women’s events. Also, make sure to take a look at our Snowboard Big Air stats page for more insights.
TOP PICKS WOMEN
Anna Gasser (AUT)
Odds: 5.00 - 5.50.
The defending Olympic Big Air Champion Anna Gasser is first on our list. Priced between 5.00 - 5.50 by the bookmakers, the Austrian who won big air gold at the 2018 Winter Olympics is competing in her third Olympics and is our favorite for the Big Air gold.
Zoi Sadowski-Synnott (NZL)
Odds: 3.25 - 5.00
Coming off gold in the slopestyle event, it seems like the Kiwi has hit peak form just in time for the Olympics. Zoi Sadowski-Synnott is also most bookmakers pick for the gold medal.
Jamie Anderson (USA)
Odds: 5.00 - 6.00
Our last pick needs no introduction. Jamie Anderson has been the face of women’s snowboarding for almost a decade. After a disappointing 9th place in the slopestyle event, Anderson who won slopestyle gold at the 2014 and 2018 Olympics is looking to redeem herself in Big Air.
TOP PICKS MEN
Mark McMorris (CAN)
Odds: 5.50 - 7.50
Even though McMorris is one of the most decorated snowboarders of all time, he is missing an Olympic gold and after a bronze in the slopestyle event, the Canadian who is know for performing under pressure will get one more shot in Big Air.
Max Parrot (CAN)
Odds: 5.00 - 7.00
Coming off a gold medal in the slopestyle event and no stranger to Big Air events, Canada’s Max Perrot is no dout looking strong. Our money will still be on McMorris for the win though.
Marcus Kleveland
Odds: 4.50 - 6.00
With silver in slopestyle and gold in big air recently at the 2022 Winter X Games, the Norwegian is definitely one of the favorites.
TWO TO WATCH
Rene Rinnekangas (FIN)
Odds: 9.00 - 17.00
Chris Corning (USA)
Odds: 6.50 - 13.00
