The snowboard women's slopestyle final, which had been postponed due to heavy snow in Lvigno, Italy, will be held again a day later.

The 2026 Milan-Cortina D'Ampezzo Winter Olympics Organizing Committee officially announced that the women's slopestyle final, which had been postponed due to bad weather, would be held at 2:30 p.m. on the 18th (local time). It is 10:30 p.m. in Korean time.

Originally, the game was scheduled to be held at 1 p.m. on the 17th, but it was postponed due to heavy snow at the stadium, Lvigno Snow Park, due to issues of visibility and player safety.

As the schedule has been adjusted, the men's slopestyle finals have also been advanced. The men's team will be held first from 11:20 a.m. on the 18th (local time), followed by the women's game.

Yoo Seung-eun (Sungbok High School), who is writing a new history of Korean snowboarding, will hunt for Korea's first snowboarding Olympics "multi medals" in the final.

Yoo Seung-eun won the bronze medal with 171.00 points in the big air event held on the 10th, becoming the first Korean women's snowboarder to win the Olympic medal.

He also scored 76.80 points in the slopestyle qualifying round on the 15th, settling for the final in third place overall, raising the possibility of adding a medal.

Yoo Seung-eun, who won the bronze medal in the women's big air earlier, also scored 76.80 points in the slopestyle preliminary round and advanced to the final round with ease as the third place overall.
