After Russian Olympic Committee's Maxim Burov, the best aerials skier in the world this season, failed to qualify for the final, who will win gold at Beijing 2022?
Burov's brother Ilya did qualify though, and he won Olympic bronze four years ago. Swiss 21-year-old Noe Roth is aiming to follow in his mother Colette Brand’s footsteps – she won bronze at the 1998 Winter Games in, yep, you guessed it, aerials. China started this event with a trio of medal hopefuls but only two reached the final stages, Qi Guangpu, who set the highest score in qualifying with a 127.88, and 30-year-old Jia Zongyang, who requires gold to complete the full set of Olympic medals in this sport.
