Canadian snowboarder Mark McMorris defended his Winter X Games gold medal in slopestyle Sunday with a walk-off final run.
The 29-year-old from Regina, who was the oldest competitor in the 10-man final, became the most decorated athlete in Winter X Games history with 22 medals, including 11 gold.
Norway’s Markus Kleveland briefly supplanted McMorris in the fourth and final round on Buttermilk Mountain, but the Canadian laid down a big-scoring run on his final pass.
Kleveland took silver and Norway’s Mons Roisland earned bronze.
McMorris won bronze at last year’s Beijing Olympics behind teammate and gold medalist Maxence Parrot of Bromont, Que.
Parrot is taking a year off from competition.
