DUSTY HENRICKSEN: X Games Xplained Snowboard Slopestyle, World of X Games

Flashback to X Games Aspen 2021: The day began with sunny skies and perfect conditions for the Jeep Mens Snowboard Slopestyle competition. For the first time since 2009, an American topped the podium as rookie Dusty Henrickson earned his second gold medal in his rookie X Games event. At just 17 years old, Dusty became the first snowboarder to win two gold medals in his rookie appearance. And we remain in awe of his ability to adapt to any terrain, from urban to slope to knuckle. Here, Dusty recounts his first Slopestyle experience for Xplained. X Games is your premier destination for all things action sports, music, lifestyle and everything in between.
