The competition is a show event that X-games introduced for skiers last year, and it is about doing tricks for the landing on the big air jump.
Only one medal is awarded - the gold
“I have actually not trained so much on knuckle huck but mostly focused on big air.
I lost some energy after that race and chose to stand over the slopestyle.
When you compete in X-games, you have to be ready to give everything because you know that everyone else will do it.
Therefore, in the morning before slopestyle, I felt that it was not the situation.
So I decided to focus on the knuckle huck instead ", he says in a press release from the Swedish Ski Association-
The Knuckle huck gold is Harlaut's first in the branch but eighth in the X-game context.
He also has five silvers since before.
