Podmilsak Fourth in First Freeski World Cup of Season

Troy Podmilsak Executing Triple 18 Mute at Big Air Chur World Cup (Buchholz/FIS Freeski).
Stifel U.S. Freeski Team athlete and 2023 world champion Troy Podmilsak made an impression at the first World Cup of the season. The Big Air Chur World Cup event in Switzerland kicked off qualifiers a day earlier than scheduled due to heavy winds and rain in the forecast, and Podmilsak capitalized on the opportunity and went out big. Executing a triple 18 mute placed him in second in his heat and guaranteed a spot in the finals. Unfortunately, the extreme weather conditions led to the cancellation of finals, with the results from Thursday, Oct. 19, qualifications standing as the final results.
Podmilsak finished in fourth place overall, trailing behind Dylan Deschamps of Canada in first, Daniel Basher of Austria in second and Birk Ruud of Norway in third.
"I'm happy to have shown up and landed the trick I wanted to do yesterday. I was looking forward to stepping it up today for finals but you can’t beat the weather," said Stifel U.S. Freeski Team athlete Troy Podmilsak. "Big thanks to the organizers for making the jump awesome in the difficult conditions. Looking forward to coming back next season!"
Podmilsak, often referred to as TPod, is no stranger to pushing the boundaries in freeskiing. Despite being only 19 years old, he clinched a gold at his first World Championships in big air and took home third place at this event last season.
Notably, Podmilsak was the only U.S. skier to compete in the Big Air Chur event. Next up, the Stifel U.S. Freeski Team will travel to Stubai, Austria for the next contest of the 2023-24 season.
RESULTS
Troy Podmilsak
Troy Podmilsak, a freeskier from Park City, Utah, is undoubtedly a prominent figure in slopestyle and big air. At the age of 19, Troy boasts an impressive track record, brimming with accomplishments that set him apart. He has secured six career podium finishes at NorAm cups and, notably, won gold in both slopestyle and big air at the Junior World Championships in Leysin in 2022. In that same year, TPod made his mark by securing a remarkable third place finish at the first World Cup of the season in Big Air Chur.
