Snowboarding

Men’s Rookie of the Year: Nik Baden
Nik Baden has been lurking below the surface of snowboarding’s mainstream consciousness for a couple seasons now. After shutting down Beta with a standout part, however, Baden is now on the radar of those paying attention. The kid from Steamboat Springs, Colorado, has developed a level of style and trick selection that has caused those in the snowboard world to turn their heads, and this season we him take the clean style and proper trick selection he’s honed on groomed features to the backcountry, stomping powder landings with an uncommon ease. Beta director Tyler Orton explains Nik is a “team player” when complimenting him on his first year filming in the backcountry. With a well-rounded approach, Baden will be here for a while.

Nordic Combined


STEAMBOAT SPRINGS — Taylor Fletcher may be as fast as anyone at any level in Nordic combined when it comes to cross-country skiing. He showed as much again Friday, skiing away from the pack to win the first of two Nordic combined Continental Cup events in Steamboat Springs.

Saturday, however, he showed that power has some limits. For all the scorching he can do on the course, he’s not quite built to win at the end of a tight race. READ MORE HERE
