New Zealand representative and HEAD sponsored athlete Jamie Prebble (pictured in the yellow bib) has narrowly missed out on a Ski Cross spot for next month's Sochi Winter Olympics.

Prebble was attempting to book his spot through a win in the Ski Cross World Cup in Val Thorens, France but unfortunately came up short, finishing in 4th place in the knockout finals. In doing so he became the first Kiwi male to qualify for a knockout final in a Ski Cross World Cup!
