ESPN and ABC will showcase 13.5 hours of live X Games competition, 7.5 additional hours will be streamed live on social media and all 21 hours will be live via the ESPN App.
X Games Aspen begins Friday with five competition windows exclusively available via streaming on the @XGames social media and the ESPN App, before moving to ESPN for primetime coverage of the highly anticipated Monster Energy Men’s Snowboard SuperPipe and fan-favorite Snowboard Knuckle Huck competitions.
Saturday and Sunday host a full slate of X Games action with an ABC and ESPN window each day. Saturday begins on ABC as queen of X Games, Jamie Anderson, looks to defend her double golds in Jeep Women’s Snowboard Slopestyle and Pacifico Women’s Snowboard Big Air.
Then evening coverage on ESPN focused on Men’s Snowboard and Ski Big Air contests. Sunday is all about Ski as the ABC window covers Jeep Men’s Ski Slopestyle during the day and ESPN’s evening coverage highlights Men’s Ski SuperPipe and Knuckle Huck.
During the ABC window on Sunday at 3 p.m. ET, adaptive skier Trevor Kennison will become the first adaptive athlete to hit the Big Air jump at X Games.
Originally from Keene, New Hampshire, Kennison went viral as at the Kings and Queens of Corbet’s competition in 2019 when he won Rider’s Choice as the only adaptive athlete invited.
Paralyzed in a snowboarding accident at 22 years old, Kennison began adaptive skiing in 2015 with support from the High Fives Foundation. He is now training for the 2022 Winter Paralympics in Beijing and began hitting the backcountry on his sit ski in early 2020.
A documentary film about Trevor’s life, Full Circle, is slated for release in fall 2022.
