"This is so incredibly special, especially with the run I did today. It's the biggest run I've done in my entire career," said Parrot. "I've never done two triples in a row in a run, with that difficulty as well, and everything was so clean. I am extremely proud of myself and to take gold on that run means so much for me."

Su, 17, scored the medal-winning 88.70 points in his second of three runs, by performing a triple cork 1800 in the last section, which is the first time for the trick to appear at a Winter Olympics.

As the World Cup Big Air winner, Su was the first rider ever to land an 1800 both ways in a FIS competition. On October 28, 2021, he landed a backside 1980 during a snowboard training camp in Saas-Fee, Switzerland.
