In what can only be described as AMAZING, because Yuto Horigome almost didn't even make it to the Olympics until the final qualifying event this year, he edged out Jagger Eaton for the gold medal, defending his title from 2021.
An incredibly close race for spots 1-4, Yuto clinched the title with a nollie 270 noseblunt slide that scored a 97.08.
In another storyline to the games, Nyjah Huston from the U.S., who did not medal in 2021, redemmed himself to get on the podium this year to take the Bronze medal.
Silver went to Jagger Eaton from the U.S.
Video Of The Event
While NBC was criticized for the opening ceremony video, I think the video of the event was pretty great overall for both video and still as you can see from the above image/screenshot where they positioned Yuto with a great background for his medal picture (and the overall camera work was spot on for the event).
