With the final curtain call on an awe-inspiring week of big air at Thredbo Resort, the competing athletes breathed a collective sigh of relief as the final day of shooting wrapped and there was only a Schuss Bar after party left to conquer.
During the week-long event we saw tricks from some of the world's best freeskiers with only a few casualties - Chris Laker sustaining a shoulder injury after a triple cork attempt on day two, and Elias Ambuhl still lost over the Tasman Sea.
The athletes have all selected their final 'One Hit' tricks including:
-double cork 1440 tail grab by Gus Kenworthy-
-switch double cork 1080 safety to truck driver by Jossi Wells-
-double cork 1080 with a tweaked mute grab by Chris Laker (before his injury)-
-switch 1260 mute to tail grab by Joss Christensen-
-cork 900 tail grab by Jerome Lambert-
-switch double cork 1440 by Bobby Brown-
