2021 X Games Ski Knuckle Huck: Recap, Replay, Results

By: Ethan Stone February 01, 2021

After a weekend of blistering action at the 2021 Winter X Games, finally last night we could kick back and watch some good old-fashioned knuckle hucking.

It’s all we’ve come to expect from the Knuckle Huck in its short existence: crazy stunts, more buttering and pressing than you can shake a stick at, and no great concern about any kind of objective judging.

You can watch the full replay for yourself below, but here are a few of our favorite highlights of the night:

- Jesper Tjäder doing what only Jesper Tjäder can do: insane, death-defying flips to the bottom of the landing. Bonus points for the flawless switch back full.

- Fabian Bösch joining Jesper in the stuntsmanship party with some wildin’ of his own like a front flip to barani, and somehow managing to fit four flips into a single run.
