    Miguel Porteous has continued the fine form of New Zealand's freeskier's and snowboarders in the US

    Miguel Porteous has continued the fine form of New Zealand's freeskier's and snowboarders in the US


    Following on from brother Nico and Zoi Sadowski-Synott's medal winning X-Games performances, Miguel Porteous has won the Aspen Open.

    It's a second tier event, but due to the lack of World Cup races because of Covid-19, it featured top US skiers who competed at the X-Games.

    Porteous is delighted.



    Porteous competes on the same pipe at the World Champs in Aspen in a fortnight.
