If he triumphs in Canada, then the 21-year-old will catapult himself into slopestyle history as well as give himself a chance of topping the 2017 World Tour Championship.
The Boston native currently sits second behind Sweden’s Emil Johansson with fellow Americans Ryan Nyquist and Anthony Messere also in contention for this season’s crown.
Canadian legend Brandon Semenuk has won Crankworx Colorado, Crankworx Les 2 Alpes and Red Bull Joyride at Crankworx Whistler, however he did not do it in a single year.
