The 2024 @wintergamesnz went down a few weeks ago with two epic @fwtqualifier events taking place in @trebleconenz and @theremarkables ⛷️🏂
From Vaughan Hardwick’s “huck and pray” strategy in the 2-star event to the Powell twins’ thrilling showdown in the 4-star competition, we saw some incredible performances. 🌟
Shoutout to Jaimie Figueira and Jessie Violet for pushing women’s snowboarding and skiing to new heights! 👏 The progression in freeride is real, folks!
Thank you to everyone who came and played a part in those epic days — athletes, crew, volunteers, fans, and sponsors! Can’t wait to see what next year’s Winter Games NZ will bring!
