who won the half pipe
The most recent major halfpipe winners being talked about right now are from the 2026 Winter Olympics in Milan-Cortina. 🏔️
Below is a “Quick Scoop” style breakdown, since your post format hints at that.
Who Won the Half Pipe?
Latest headline result
For the most recent big global event, the 2026 Winter Olympics halfpipe champions were:
- Women’s freeski halfpipe : Eileen Gu (China) took gold, successfully defending her Olympic title with a top score of 94.75 in the final run.
- Men’s freeski halfpipe : Alex Ferreira (USA) won gold, completing his full set of Olympic medals with a 93.75 in his third run.
These two wins are what most news and forums mean right now if they say “who won the half pipe” without specifying which event.
Quick context (why it matters)
- Eileen Gu’s victory made her one of the most decorated freeski athletes in Olympic history, adding to multiple previous medals in halfpipe, slopestyle, and big air.
- Alex Ferreira had already earned Olympic silver and bronze in prior Games, so this 2026 gold completed a career-long chase for the one medal missing from his collection.
Think of 2026 as the Games where Gu cemented her legacy and Ferreira finally “finished the set.”
If you meant a different halfpipe
“Who won the half pipe” could refer to several things:
- Snowboard vs. freeski halfpipe.
- Men’s vs. women’s events.
- Olympics, X Games, or World Cups in different years.
From current coverage, though, the default assumption in February 2026 is:
- You’re asking about the 2026 Olympic halfpipe finals ,
- And the top-line answer is Eileen Gu (women’s freeski) and Alex Ferreira (men’s freeski).
If you tell me:
- snowboard or ski,
- men’s or women’s,
- and which year/event (Olympics, X Games, etc.),
I can narrow it to that exact winner for you.
Mini FAQ
- “Was this snowboarding?”
No: the latest big wins mentioned here are in freeski halfpipe, not snowboard halfpipe.
- “Did Gu win more than one gold?”
Yes: she already had earlier Olympic golds and silvers; 2026 added another halfpipe gold and further boosted her medal count.
- “Why is Ferreira’s gold a big storyline?”
Because he already had silver and bronze from earlier Olympics, so this 2026 gold completed the classic “bronze–silver–gold” career arc.
TL;DR:
If you’re asking about the latest big halfpipe at the 2026 Winter Olympics,
Eileen Gu (women’s freeski) and Alex Ferreira (men’s freeski) are the
champions everyone’s talking about.
