With all the excitement from X Games Aspen 2024 this past weekend, it’s possible you might not have had time to digest all of the riveting games of SLVSH that took place during the first ever SLVSH Cup Snowmass. James Woodsy, Joss Christensen and a whole mess of SLVSH lifers were able to put on one of the best events we’ve ever been treated to. With a stellar bracket and a beautiful playground courtesy of the Snowmass Park Crew (not to be confused with the Ajax Park Crew), each game was as entertaining as can be. There were many boggling moments, but our top moment might go to Matêj Švancer for calling a switch-screamin’ front flip. Keep an eye out for that in his game against Ferdinand Dahl.
This was not an X Games medal event, however there were some enticing rewards up for grabs. The winner received a cash prize, as well as a spot on the coveted X Games Knuckle Huck lineup. Needless to say, nobody was holding back. It’s so cool to see such a core event be brought into the lime light and welcomed by the team at X Games. Hopefully, this is the first year of many. Huge thank you to Woodsy, Joss, Tom Wallisch and everyone who worked hard to make this whole thing happen.
Below, you’ll find every game from SLVSH Cup Snowmass, the final results, as well as the live games of SLVSH played for one hour at the start of X Games on Friday, January 26.

BONUS ROUND – Live Game of SLVSH
To kick things off at X Games Aspen 2024, the team hosted a live game of SLVSH. There were four matchups:
Colby Stevenson vs. Fedinand Dahl
Olivia Asselin vs. Taylor Lundquist
Jesper Tjader vs. Max Moffatt
Rell Harwood vs. Tereza Korabova
No medals up for grabs here, but the victor of each matchup got their own golden Nixon watch. Not a shabby prize in itself, that’s for sure. With a one-hour time limit, this talented list of riders had to battle it out. The skier with the least letters after the hour was declared the winner. Joss was the man with the mic at the top, and Woodsy’s palpable excitement can be heard throughout the commentating. It’s wildly cool to see SLVSH live on the big screen.
