Creativity on Display Under the Lights

The achievement highlights a career made not just with longevity, but with versatility. Hall continues to stand out across radically different contest formats; showing precision and consistency in slopestyle while using knuckle huck as a platform for creativity, experimentation, and progression.

His knuckle huck showing leaned into unconventional ideas, mixing switch takeoffs, extended butters, and rotations that used style and control over technical labels. In a discipline made to reward originality, Hall once again separated himself by pushing beyond established trick frameworks.

A Bronze That Shows the Full Range

Earlier in the week, Hall earned a slopestyle bronze, showing the more structured and calculated side of his skiing under traditional judging. Together, the two results highlight the rare balance he has maintained throughout his career; competitive success without sacrificing creativity.

That balance is explored in greater depth in Hall’s recent interview with Magma, the video ski collective where he plays a central role. In the conversation, Hall talks about his evolving relationship with competition, and how creative freedom influences his skiing. The interview offers context to the way he approaches contest; and why his skiing continues to stand out even as the sport evolves.

Fellow Utah freeskier Colby Stevenson joined Hall on the knuckle huck podium with a silver-medal finish, while Norway’s Tormod Frostad rounded out the top three. Riders noted that this year’s knuckle feature provided more room to experiment, rewarding those willing to take creative risks; an environment where Hall continues to live.

With 14 X Games medals now to his name, Alex Hall has tied the most decorated skier in event history; solidifying his place not only among the sport’s elite, but as one of its defining voices.
