Alex Beaulieu-Marchand
Alex Beaulieu-Marchand, born March 3, 1994, in Quebec City, is a celebrated Canadian freestyle skier specializing in slopestyle and big air. Starting ski at age two in a skiing family, he gravitated toward slopestyle by age 12, influenced by friends and fueled by early passion. He made his World Cup debut in 2012, finishing a remarkable 4th in Ushuaia, Argentina, and by January 2013, achieved a podium with bronze in Copper Mountain. His Olympic debut came at Sochi 2014, where he finished 12th in slopestyle. He reached the pinnacle of his career at PyeongChang 2018, earning a bronze medal in slopestyle—Canada’s first in the event. ABM’s freestyle credentials also shine through X Games and World Championship performances. He won bronze at X Games Aspen 2017 (slopestyle), and 2019 was a breakout year: silver in both slopestyle and big air at Aspen, bronze in big air at World Championships in Park City, plus Real Ski bronze—competing consistently among the elite. His World Cup record includes multiple podiums and notable rankings (4th overall in slopestyle in 2013). After battling injuries, he evolved into a creative freeride and film-minded athlete, releasing artistic projects like the short film MIRAGE in 2024 showcasing his unique style and vision in backcountry terrain.
Henrik Harlaut
Henrik Harlaut, born on August 14, 1991 in Stockholm and raised in Åre, Sweden, is widely celebrated as one of the greatest freestyle skiers of all time. Known by nicknames like “E-dollo” and “Bloody Dollaz,” he brings unmatched creativity, flair, and jaw-dropping technical innovation to the slopes. Henrik’s signature moment came in Aspen at Winter X Games XVII, where he landed the first-ever nose-butter triple-cork 1620 in Big Air, scoring a perfect 50 and securing the gold, along with silver in slopestyle. With a record 13 total X Games medals — 8 gold and 5 silver — he holds the most podiums in skiing history. He has represented Sweden at multiple Winter Olympics, finishing sixth in slopestyle in Sochi 2014 (famously performing with his pants around his knees and a “Wu-Tang is for the children” salute) and earning bronze in Big Air at Beijing 2022. Beyond the Olympics, he claimed silver at the 2019 World Championships (Big Air) and dominated the World Cup circuit, winning the Big Air crystal globe in 2017 with multiple event victories. More than a competitor, Henrik stands out as a cultural icon. His style — from dreadlocks and baggy clothes to fearless trick execution — challenges norms while embodying pure joy and expression. He balances competition, filmmaking (notably in “The Regiment”), and community involvement, remaining a powerful influence shaping freestyle skiing’s evolution.
Jake Mageau
Jake Mageau is an American freeskiing talent known for his creative, playful style that shines across halfpipe, knuckle huck, and street skiing realms. Born around 1997 and originally from Maui, Hawaii, he began skiing after his family moved to Bend, Oregon at age seven. His passion led him into competitive halfpipe skiing and into the U.S. Ski Team program. He first made a notable mark internationally by winning silver in the halfpipe at the Freestyle Junior World Championships in 2015, and later earned acclaim as the fan-favorite at the X Games Real Ski event in 2019—a testament to his imaginative skiing and engaging presence. Mageau continued to impress, claiming a silver medal in the ski knuckle huck at Winter X Games Aspen 2022. Over the years, Jake has shifted focus from formal competition toward creative filmmaking, collaborations with friends and filmmakers, and expressing skiing as an art form. His progression reflects a journey from competitive rookie to respected innovator in freeski culture.
