Holy moly Kleveland. This is some insane talent. He not only came back to xgames, he even came back stronger than ever before. He is the epitome of a beast! Not even a handdrag on the nollie 1980 and the Shikane.... absolutely insane!!!

Su's comeback was insane you can tell how acomplished he felt much love

So cool to see Marcus doing a trick so different than everyone else

Kleveland is on another level! And I reckon Dusty's 1800 japan should have been scored a little better but dang what a awesome night. Women and men were killing it!

clear display of the progress made year after year in snowboarding. this was a pure masterclass by marcus kleveland but this big air was definitely one for the history books..

I absolutely love how the judges loved that triple rodeo

X Games judges sometimes have a tendency to pick favorites, but Marcus 100% deserved that result. Every single man on the roster has the chops to win on their night, but consistency is key, and Kleveland has that on lock.

18:07 super underrated the way he did that shifty at the end along with how soft he landed was insaane

So happy to see Takeru was coming back even when he was not in the list at the very beginning.

These athletes are doing some tricks these days that we never could’ve imagined when I was younger. Like a 1080 seemed near impossible back then. Now they’re stomping quad cork 1980’s. Kleveland is a monster on these big air jumps. Such a clean style and perfect techniques. Amazing runs. Such a boss. Exactly what I was hoping to see outta this event.

Can’t believe they didn’t even seem phased by takeru’s slam.

2:57 Caught slippin 😏

I'll be happy when a little bit of steez comes back into these comps. Exciting big tricks, but it starts to feel same same. Loving what Kleveland brings, style and technicality!

I love how cameramen just jumps this beast while keeping perfect frame

I remember when 1800s could only be done in Cool Boarders 2 with Gray the alien

Every year im thinking that this is the peak and you cant progress anymore but those guys and gals keep proving me wrong. What an incredible sport

kinda feel like dusty was getting slightly robbed all night

8:33

That slam from Otsuka on run 3 was gnarly

And the vibes right here in my living room are MORE MORE UNREAL!!!

19:39 I love the shout out to Henrik! The day Tanner hyped him up to do the first nose butter triple cork and he stomped it for a perfect score… it’ll almost bring a tear to your eye 🥲

I'm kinda glad I don't know who Yung gravy is.

That first 49 Kleveland did was the craziest trick I’ve ever seen.

Dusty should have scored Way higher

Selema going live is like a fireplace being lit on christmas morning.

so pumped to see an axis other than a cork

It is crazy to see competition so advanced, that Mark McMorris is a level behind.

1980真牛逼啊。lets get it 苏，so stoked to see him at X games 加油！！！

Shoutout to whoever decided to use drum n bass tracks in the broadcast 🤙

Кливленд просто красавчик! ПОздравляю Маркуса с победой! Супер!

It’s crazy to see how hard people work after destroying their bodies. Kudos to these guys

My boy Marcus with ANOTHER ONE ☝️ (dj Khalid voice)

Congratulations Marcus!!!

WOW this is so inspiring

Jump is nuts this year

How did Su's 1980 outscore Marcus's, it looked like he put 2 hands down on the landing.

Big Props to all 🎉 especially Dusty!

I missed it, was there no ski big air?

Kleveland nailed that landing on his first run

How do these snow boarders know where the ground is when they're doing these insane flips? Amazes me everytime.

My childhood fav❤

Marks fit is soo good best steeze

Это нереально!)))

Did anyone see him take a shot😂 or just me? Great way to start an amazing x games event💯

Congrats Marcus. He is taking the Big Air competition to another level. But why is not Max Parrot participating this year?

Spin to win is so so so. how about featuring all these great riders doing fun runs? Then we could see some style and cool tricks.

so many sick rotations this year!!!!!!

So cool

Everyone completely killed it - Kleveland still untouchable !

Marcus Kleveland is a gift to snowboarding

Love how they caught buddy drinking lol. They played it off

2:55 little brother gets caught drinkin a beer lol

@Xgames I do greatly appreciate the free streams, but is 1080p (1080/60) not possible in 2023?! 720 looks great on a phone, but on a 1440p monitor it looks pretty bad… Thank you for all that you do though, I’ll obviously take 720/60 over nothing 😅

WHY'D THEY DO MY BOY SAL LIKE THAT AND DRESS HIM UP LIKE PAPA SMURF!?!?!

Craig is the Scotty Cramner of snowboarding

32:09 "those who don't do, talk" yup lol

I dont understand the new point system, whats the max amount of points you can get now?

Dusty got kinda boned again.. he’s the most fun to watch for me. Kid has style for days.

Marcus, 👏👏💫💥🙌

Some of these guys look like they can spin a lot more times

How does the scoring work for this event and what trick are there in this event

Su Yiming has done very well, first at the Olympics and now at the xgames.

Where is Steepsteep, I though he is the voice of skiing and snowboarding 🙌😎🇫🇮

2:57 exposin him

come on, X Games. 720p in 2023?

what is the song at 9 minutes exact?????????????????????? its kiiiilllllingggggg. shazam blows.

I’m expecting the first 20 this year

Rip to camcorder guy at 0:24 got left hanging

Idk how much longer I can support allowing myself to watch x games, Young gravy has absolutely no business having a face during beautiful winter x games.

Markus is on another level but Dusty got the filthiest style fosho

song name @ 29:47 ??

Hahah that Dude was drinking a cold one ! Hahah

Marcus Kleveland is a hero and legend

The announcers for this are amazing.

that guy at the beginning in the crowd totally flubbed the rehearsed line

why is this age restricted

I, too, smashed my knee just like that. Except for mine was a bicycling accident. I know what my knee bone looks like cause I could see it sticking out. The doctor said we're gunna do some surgery and rehab. Because I like cycling so much, I had to do the rehab. That was 5 years ago. I bicycle now more than I ever did before. 😊 It's like that song lyric. "I get knocked down, but I get up again." Yada yada yada.

THIS IS WHAT TERJE HAAKONSEN WOULD CALL BALLERINA FREESTYLE!! THAT 1440 JAPAN WAS PRETTIER THAN ALOT OF THOSE 1800S BUT IM JUST A SKIER

Marks front triple 14 with the weddle to tail should be getting 40 minimum imo… he even tweaked both grabs and landed soooo clean. A bunch of these 18s were lowkey compression hand drags which isn’t a fall but definitely not as great style.

Why does it seem like there's a lack on variety in snowboard tricks these days? Just seems like everyone grabs indy or melon and tries to spin as much as possible.

At this rate Kleveland has this Medal locked down for a decade

Cool to see little brother drinking and have the awkward pass off. 2:56

I feel like there aren't enough attempts now that the tricks required to get a decent score are so difficult. Basically if you fail 3 times you have likely lost, Otsuka got lucky

何がすごいって選手もすごいけど滑りながら対象をきちんとフレームに収めてるカメラマンもすごい。自分だったらエッジが引っかかって盛大にコケるか雪と空しか撮れてない😂

I remember when 1260s weren't even feasible on videogames....

Su's 1980 was super sick, but it outscored Marcus's with that hand drag? With a score that high, it's almost like there was no penalty at all. Either way, Su deserved his position, but that just seems really over scored.

First jump @ 3:31

What is a Yung Gravy and why is he on this snowboard show?

It's insane what they do but its more or less just a spin to win contest by now. Doesn't matter if you do a japan versus an melon, getting more air than anybody els or just passing the knuckle. Fiévan figure skating has more style points.

Did anyone else see messi holding the wc on a phone? 28:40

Sal hasn’t aged a day I the last 20 years lol

Marcus Kleveland er heeeelt vill! Helt sinnsykt! 🇳🇴🇳🇴🇳🇴🇳🇴🎉🎉

Me in steep be like

Is Marcus going to claim the competition after every run?

Spintest vs Rodeo

i am a bmxer and a snowboarder. i worked at a world class ski snowboard resort for 15 years as a mgr. i made over 200 snowboarding videos. snowboarding down volcanoes in ninja suit and doing weapons as i went down the volcano. videos snowboarding dressed as KISS or bigfoot. etc. i love to shred. but. when i watch bmx or snow xgames. because you are hooked to the board. you got spins. flips. off axis and grabs. which makes every trick look the same. compare this to a big air on bmx. the amount of tricks that can be done on a bmx that look completely different are mind blowing. this is impressive. but when one spins this many times. to the average person. it looks all the same. unlike bmx. still cool. but i think a slow 360 with a long held grab still looks better than spinning fast as one can with no style. just my opinion.

Klevland is redonkulous!

2:56 what happened there? 😆

I've been wondering for a couple years, why did he go from introducing himself as "Sal" to his full name of "Salema"? It flowed so much better before, imo. It's up to him, of course. Nothing wrong with it, but it feels like there's more to it Even Victoria let slip and called him Sal, then corrected to Salema. I've never understood the change.

Its all spins now.i wish it was more style involved
