Who Won The FIS Freestyle Ski & Snowboarding World Championships 2023?

Picture
Bakuriani 2023, a resort town in the Trialeti Range of mountains of Georgia, hosted the FIS Freestyle Ski, Snowboard and Freeski World Championships - marking the first time Georgia has hosted a winter sports world championship. This also maked the 19th edition of the freestyle skiing worlds (since 1986) and the 15th for snowboarding (1996); since 2015 the two events have been held together, and in every non-Winter Olympic year.

The 2023 edition ran from February 18th through only today unexpectedly as weather forced adjustment to the schedule. Competition featured seven men's freestyle skiing events, seven women's, and two mixed. Meanwhile, snowboarding had six for each gender, plus two mixed.

Team Austria topped the final medal table with 13 overall (3 gold), with Teams Canada, United States, Switzerland, and France also claiming three golds each. Nineteen nations won at least one of the 90 medals at stake. Complete results can be found online on fis-ski.com, at the respective freestyle skiing and snowboarding calendar pages.

Congratulations to all of 2023 world champions! A photo recap of the winners is below.
