Milan-Cortina 2026: Freeski Big Air Men Results

Tormod Frostad’s Olympic title came down to execution depth rather than separation. His winning 195.50 total left almost no margin across the medals, with Mac Forehand finishing 2.25 back and Matej Svancer 4.25 off the top spot. In a final decided by small differentials, landing quality and judge-to-judge consistency mattered as much as trick selection.

For Forehand, the silver confirms he converted a high-seed into a complete three-run final under pressure, an important marker after a volatile big air season where single misses can wipe out a podium. Svancer’s bronze is equally significant, putting him into Olympic medal territory in a discipline that has increasingly rewarded repeatable, high-difficulty rotations rather than single standout attempts.

The result reshapes the big air hierarchy coming out of the Games. Frostad leaves Livigno with the most valuable line on the resume and the strongest leverage heading into the next major-cycle invitations, while Forehand and Svancer now carry Olympic medals that raise their baseline expectations at every top-tier start list.

1. Tormod Frostad (NOR) 195.50
2. Mac Forehand (USA) 193.25
3. Matej Svancer (AUT) 191.25
