    Freeskier Nico Porteous is relishing his ability to express himself after claiming silver in the X-Games superpipe in Aspen


    The 22-year-old's best score of 92.66 came on his third and final run, with commentators praising his innovation.

    But Porteous admits winning it all wasn't front of mind.



    Fellow Kiwi Tiarn Collins has placed sixth in the men's snowboard slopestyle.
