Here’s how you can watch the Women’s Ski Halfpipe Finals at the 2018 Winter Olympics live online or the old-fashioned way right on your television.
The Women’s Ski Halfpipe Finals will take place at the Pyeongchang 2018 Winter Olympics on Monday, Feb. 19 at 8:30 p.m. ET / 5:30 p.m. PT on NBC. You can catch the event’s live stream at NBCOlympics.com. Coverage will begin live on primetime television on NBC at 8:00 p.m. with both Figure Skating and Freestyle Skiing being featured tonight.
Team USA’s Maddie Bowman will defend her halfpipe gold medal from Sochi. Bowman is the heavy favorite with an impressive resume including five gold medals [2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2018], a silver medal [2012], and a bronze medal [2017] in SuperPipe at the Winter X Games in Aspen. That’s seven consecutive years that Bowman has won a medal at the Winter X Games for the SuperPipe event. Absolute domination of the event for almost a decade.
Bowman will face formidable competition including the first woman to ever drop a 1080 in a competition halfpipe and fellow Team USA skier, Brita Sigourney. She’s won two silver medals [2011, 2018] and two bronze medals [2012, 2015] in SuperPipe at the Winter X Games in Aspen. Team USA’s Annalisa Drew is a strong contender with a bronze medal [2016] in SuperPipe at the Winter X Games in Aspen.
France’s Marie Martinod won the silver medal in halfpipe in Sochi and most recently won a gold medal in SuperPipe at the 2017 Winter X Games in Aspen. Martinod previously won two bronze medals in SuperPipe at the Winter X Games in Aspen [2006, 2014].
Then there’s the winner of the qualifiers Canada’s own Cassie Sharpe, who won a gold medal in SuperPipe at the Winter X Games in Oslo [2016], a silver medal at the Kreischberg World Championships [Halfpipe], and a bronze medal at the Winter X Games in Aspen [2018].
At the qualifiers Sharpe finished first, Martinod finished second, Sigourney finished third, Drew finished fourth, and Bowman finished sixth.
Anything can happen at the Winter Olympics games, you better believe they’ll be pulling out all stops to win gold. We’re in for a spectacle at this halfpipe finals.
