    Snowboarder Cool Wakushima's been ruled out of the Beijing Olympic big air competition


    She hasn't fully recovered from a tailbone injury sustained in the slopestyle where she finished 23rd.

    However, Wakushima's relished the experience.



    Slopestyle gold medallist Zoi Sadowski-Synnott, who secured bronze in the big air at PyeongChang, is back in qualifying action from 2.30pm.
