Jesper is the only competitor that makes every single trick memorable. Every trick is unique. He is the highlight reel. No one else does knuckle huck like him. If your only critique is that he’s done SW double back before, something no one else does in this event, so be it. He should be 3x champ but atleast he finally got what he’s deserved.
In terms of unique and fun jazzy runs, Jesper won that by a landslide. Everyone else was trying to do technical hard stuff, but Jesper really embodied the vibe of the knuckle huck (I mean the event name has huck in it, like cmon) and easily deserved those knucks. Big gz to him and cant wait for more awesome events this year!
@@HaydenTalcott I said the same thing before and put a spoiler warning before it. But.... Noone seems to have seen my comment. And this really, really needs to be said. Jesper deserves that medal probably more than anyone else.
Jesper really captured the charm that should be shown in the knuckle huck. Yeah its cool these guys are landing double corks off the knuckle, but its even cooler to lay out massive double flips or barrel roll off the snow.
My point was Jesper wasnt doing slopestyle/big air tricks, his doubles where floaty tricks and not comp doubles / corks etc. His manual frontflip, Wormturn 900, backslide big part off the knuckle is the core of my statement.
Every athlete in this event absolutely crushed it. IMO they should all get golds because they're all steezy in their own way. Especially Henrik, man is freak of nature.
No way. if the contest was judged solely on single best trick, then I think Matej would have a chance because his dub was siick. But the contest was on overall impression on all runs. With that in mind, Jesper 100% deserved this. Run after run he slayed it.
Why didn't they do podium medals for the ski knuckle huck, but they did for the snowboard knuckle huck? All these guys threw down some hard tricks, they deserve a little something
They are on freestyle/twin-tip skis. Several of these guys are on K2, Armada and Faction skis. I was able to figure out what most of the skis were, although a few of them I'm not 100% sure on. (Several guys are riding on next year's skis that aren't available yet, so I can't confirm).. But here you go.. Joona Kangas - K2 Poacher Colby Stevenson - K2 Poacher Matej Svancer - Faction - Prodigy 1.0 CT1 Jesper Trader - Head - Oblivion 94 Alex Hackel - 1000 Skis - Park Henrik Harlaut - Armada Skis - Edollo Alex Hall - Faction - Studio1 Quinn Wolfermann - Armada Skis - ARV 96 (or 106?)
The best skier won! Fantastic competition. I hope Jesper will somehow be able to import that medal into Norway - "Brass Knuckles" and everything that looks like them are totally illegal there, and he would be subject to arrest and criminal charges. Someone should warn him...
I was thinking "jesper is going to win or something is wrong" through the entire video. and every run just got me more certain that I was right. no one was even close to him on either exicution nor creativity
@@Optable People just need to not look at the comments before watching the comp. Does nobody have control of their attention. I can't even see the comments unless I scroll down, and that's after I exit full screen.
Jesper alone did 4 of the best Knuckles I have ever seen
like every year...
No one had the pure creativity that Jesper had, completely deserved the golden knuckles. His uniqueness and swag reminded me of Zeb Powell on skis.
His last trick was the only really creative one but still deserved
he basically did the same thing as he did last year so i dont know about creativity but really impressive tho
@@mateibaciu4632 only trick that was the same is the sw dub back and its just his signature knuckle huck trick rest was new
@Matei Baciu he was top 3 with those last years aswell I'd say and now that mist others failed and he improved and also had new tricks, it was fair

Jesper really had to stop himself from responding "Was about time" when asked about what that medal means to him 🤣
At least in my mind.
maan why is this spoiler the top comment :/
@@poilairix2757 so sorry but this has to be said 😅
15:18 That hand-drag double cork 7 was a thing of beauty.
About time that Jesper gets the medal. Congrats!
Thanks for spoiling it
straight up just spoiled it for everyone

The double 1260 by Henrik Harlaut was CRAZY!

Jesper was flawless. Nice job brotha.💯💯💯
Jesper uses the knuckle as a knuckle and not like a jump, so deserved, the GOAT.
jesper used the knuckle more as a jump than anyone else hahahaha. still deserved the win tho
I'd actually disagree, he didn't butter as much and did the most doubles etc., but that win was nevertheless totally deserved
Okay but I just saw that body slide again, that was a really, really creative and sick trick you can probably only do on a knuckle :)
@@johannestafelmaier616 yeah but compared to the other guys jesper used the knuckle the leas
My point was Jesper wasnt doing slopestyle/big air tricks, his doubles where floaty tricks and not comp doubles / corks etc. His manual frontflip, Wormturn 900, backslide big part off the knuckle is the core of my statement.
Holy moly ravioli…
Absolutely insane! Looking forward to your reactions!
Yes siirr
Should’ve been commentating it in the first place brother
That 900 off the body slide has to be the cleanest body slide I've ever seen. So unique. Jesper totally deserved the W
Love this event, love seeing skiers like Joona at Xgames.
So torn in this event, Quinn one of my friends... But Jesper!!! so glad he won.
Matej Svancee by farr most creative, Big future ahead🔥🔥
im 36. i want to say thank you to xgames for keeping these yearly shows and events going strong.
Every athlete in this event absolutely crushed it. IMO they should all get golds because they're all steezy in their own way. Especially Henrik, man is freak of nature.
Getting me real exited for big air tomorrow… quad cork from svancer?
21:00 is my favorite trick lol
Jesper, you're so entertaining and inspiring to watch, not just in competition, but always.
so good to see Jesper finally get the gold man! Now just waiting for steep steep to react 😂
This lineup is so sick I love it.
finally again a knuckle, i dont ride ski‘s but im so ecxited about the snowboarding, hope it will be creative and zeb will shred the hill
Jesper finally not getting robbed got me so stoked for him. Congrats, so deserved!!
What a competition!
Matej's hand drag dub 7 was the best trick imo. Shame he fell on the last hit, could've won the whole thing
Stoked to see alex hackel performing, 1000 Skis has taken off shout out to them
Best event at the x games so happy to see Jesper get a well deserved medal!
can we please bring SteepSteep for guest commentary please?
^^^^^^^^
Jesper's fronty to barani was ridiculous, such good air and body awareness
Keeping the knuckle huck style real and sick tricks at the same time. I didn't know that was possible.
Much deserved Jasper 😮💨👆🏼 after all years finally 🙏🏼🥳
This sport feels like the gymnastics of the X games. I really like this sport a lot. That double black flip was awesome.
insane as usual
I Love the way medal was given, deep consideration from the judges
Joona is basically on a monoski
its that time of year again!
If you like Jesper Tjäder you need to watch "Supervention". It's one of the best produced skiing films.
Should’ve been his fourth knuckle huck medal
JESPER MY MAN! Finallyyyyyyy
I am so happy!!!
„I mean, this is xGames, but it‘s also fun..“ 😂❤️
That man with that double backflip was gravy
@steepsteep anther steezy knuckle huck video!
Best event!
I agree with the judges.
Well deserved, and FINNALY! JESPER
Finally Not Robbed!!
Night guys love you all such a pleasure
Whats the song at 29:39?
Happy for Jesper!
what skis r harlaut riding the 2024 edollos?
IMO 2. Alex Hackel 3. Matej
Yeah, I couldn't seperate those two either. I probably felt Matej second over Hackel.
No way. if the contest was judged solely on single best trick, then I think Matej would have a chance because his dub was siick. But the contest was on overall impression on all runs. With that in mind, Jesper 100% deserved this. Run after run he slayed it.
Shout out Quinn wolfferman repping Missoula MT
this makes me wanna learn how to ski, i went once but i wanna be good
Amazing Jesper, all the way
my guy jesper just casually breaking the laws of physics. knuckle perfection.
all of them are soo clean i need new skis so if anyone knows any of the brands and types that they use pls tell me
Faction is a great freestyle brand
@@brendanfinnerty9253 thanks brendan
0n3p!
Armada, faction, On3p, 1000 skis are the red ones

So sick!!!!!!
I THOUGHT IT WAS THE WENDYS KNUCKLE HUCK WHAT THE HECK MAN
Sponsors come and go but the Knuckle Huck is timeless!
Why didn't they do podium medals for the ski knuckle huck, but they did for the snowboard knuckle huck? All these guys threw down some hard tricks, they deserve a little something
I also thought the "medals" look completely lame. Are they made out of plastic?
Tom being impartial: "Henrick is your favorite skier's favourite skier"
Bro he went off
song @29:12? Or just copyrigt free generic tv song?
Well deserved Jesper!
jesper went ham wow!
The best event of X Games presented by Chipotle!
Jespers backslide was the only really original thing we’ve seen here everything else was done before
25:10 for anyone who missed it
I've not seen anyone do a worm turn cork 9 before.

Jesper killed others with that jump fr
The best skier won! Fantastic competition. I hope Jesper will somehow be able to import that medal into Norway - "Brass Knuckles" and everything that looks like them are totally illegal there, and he would be subject to arrest and criminal charges. Someone should warn him...
Imagine, XGames with just announcing the rider.
Call the trick..
and just silence.
the way is teleported into my hand
What Happened with B-dog??🐶
The follow cam guy needs to step his game up
“Jesper shatter”

Insane that Henrik took the gold medal home
Jesper has been robbed and scammed out of medals so many times im so happy he finally got what he deserves, imo the most fun skier to watch
Magma ⛷️
I was thinking "jesper is going to win or something is wrong" through the entire video. and every run just got me more certain that I was right. no one was even close to him on either exicution nor creativity
Wow Alex Hall with the gold!!!
Jesper🔥🔥🔥
360p :*(

that's the worst medal i've ever seen in Xgames. The worst.

Makes sad i could never do what these guys do
Never have a win been more well deserved than this. Jesper ruled.
not sure, but i think this event was sponsored by CHIPOTLE, correct?
needa see more creativity from others, seems like everyone tryna copy harlaut. jesper doing his own thing, which is why he won.
Wow can't believe Alex Hall snagging the Gold
