Olympic Freestyle Ski — or Freeski — should be your favorite event that doesn’t involve blades, bobsleigh, or pucks.

If there’s one event you simply cannot miss at the Winter Olympics, it’s the Freestyle Ski. Also known as Freeski, this is the event that is the closest thing to the X-Games as you’ll see in any of the skiing events.

There’s a couple of different styles that will be on display in South Korea, all of which are worth a watch. The moguls, aerials, and slopestyle all involves jumps, downhill speed and plenty of chances for big air. The best event is the halfpipe, which is the event most common viewers will be familiar with from osmosis more than anything. This is the X-Games event where the skiers speed downhill and perform the best tricks they can with the amount of time given. Big air lives for these moments and it’s one of the most thrilling and easily digestible Winter Olympic events.

That being said, you’re a fool to miss any of the action. Here are the times for the Freestyle Ski events this year at the Olympics:
