Winter Olympics: Snowboarding Betting Preview

04/02/2026|SB Staff|Olympics Tips & Predictions
<p>Snowboarding is one of the most popular events at the Winter Olympics. Bet on it with us at Sportsbet as we provide our predictions!</p> <p>There will be several opportunities to wager on this discipline, with six medal events across halfpipe, slopestyle and big air, plus separate medals in snowboard cross, parallel giant slalom and mixed team events all set to be held.</p> <p>Medal events run from 7-18 February 2026 (local times), with big air first, then PGS and cross, and slopestyle closing the snowboard schedule. Key dates for your diary include:</p> <ul> <li>7-9 Feb: Men’s and women’s big air finals (night events).</li> <li>8 Feb: Men’s and women’s parallel giant slalom finals.</li> <li>12-13 Feb: Men’s and women’s snowboard cross finals.</li> <li>13 Feb: Men’s and women’s halfpipe finals (women 12th, men 13th).</li> <li>15 Feb: Mixed team snowboard cross final.</li> <li>17-18 Feb: Women’s and men’s slopestyle finals.</li> </ul> <h2>When Is the Milano–Cortina 2026 Snowboard?</h2> <p>The event is held across a 12-day period.</p> <h2>Where Is the Milano–Cortina 2026 Snowboard Held?</h2> <p>All Olympic snowboard events are staged at Livigno Snow Park (Mottolino side) at around 1,800m altitude, a long, snow‑reliable valley nicknamed “Little Tibet of Europe.”</p> <h2>Milano–Cortina 2026 Snowboard 2026 Prize Money</h2> <p>There is no prize money available.</p> <h2>How To Bet On The Milano–Cortina 2026 Snowboard?</h2> <p>You can bet at Sportsbet using the competitive <a href="https://www.sportsbet.com.au/betting/olympics">Winter Olympics</a> betting page.</p> <p>Simply click the event and the odds you want to add to your betting slip. Set your stake and then hit ‘Place Bet’ at the bottom to confirm it!</p> <h2>Milano–Cortina 2026 Snowboard: Betting Preview</h2> <p>When making predictions, it’s important to recognise the following:</p> <ul> <li>Livigno’s cold, dry climate and 1,800m elevation usually mean firm, consistent snow and stable pipes/parks, which favours technical, high‑amplitude riders over pure “survival” specialists.</li> <li>Organisers have already produced around 1.6 million m³ of technical snow to guarantee coverage across venues, so expect hard, fast courses rather than soft, rutted landings unless there’s a major warm spell.</li> </ul> <p>When making our betting predictions, we think the following could happen and offer value:</p> <ul> <li>Ayumu Hirano in the Men’s halfpipe, as he is the reigning champion and extremely consistent.</li> <li>Chloe Kim in the Women’s halfpipe, as the two‑time Olympic gold medallist is back from a break and landing 1260s in contests, with a 1440 reportedly in training.</li> <li>Liam Brearley in the Men’s slopestyle &amp; big air, as he ranks as the favourite. He is the reigning slopestyle world champion and No.1‑ranked World Cup rider, having had multiple wins in 2023-24.</li> </ul> <p>Zoi Sadowski‑Synnott in the Women’s slopestyle &amp; big air. She is almost unstoppable and is the reigning Olympic, X Games and world champion in slopestyle with triple corks in big air. She is coming off a big injury, but remains hard to beat. Mia Brookes could offer value, as she became the youngest world champion in snowboarding history after the 2023 slopestyle gold.</p>
