History was made Friday night at Winter XGames Aspen as over 46,000 fans cheered in the cold. 21 year old Jamie Anderson took home the gold with the highest score and hardest run ever seen in women's Slopestyle history. Then jaws dropped watching Big Air as the first "official" triple cork was landed at XGames by Mark McMorris & Torstein Horgmo.
