Slopestyle and Big Air phenom Mark McMorris (18) is scorching after winning double gold in Big Air and Slopestyle at WX Aspen 2012. In Big Air, he made history by landing the first triple cork in contest history (this after landing the first backside triple cork 1440 in March '11). He's become one of the leaders of the teenage groundswell sweeping snowboarding. The Canadian enters WXT further refining his already-consistent Cab double cork 1260 and backside double cork 1260. He also has a double backside Rodeo and a unique double backflip. If the jumps are big enough -- and he feels he needs it to win -- we might see his triple cork.
