At his first Big Air World Cup of this season after coming back from injury, McMorris will be joined in Beijing by the other ESPY award winner Anna Gasser of Austria, who also won X Games medals as well as the Big Air and snowboard freestyle overall World Cup title.

In the season-opening Big Air World Cup in Italy, Gasser triumphed earlier this month to make herself again the female rider to beat.

The Air+Style Beijing, having been held for seven straight years since 2010, is upgraded this year and joins the FIS Snowboard World Cup tour by hosting this season's second Big Air event in the Worker's Stadium, rather than in the Chinese National Stadium as the previous ones.

Reigning Big Air world champion Staale Sandbech and other big names like Sebastien Toutant, Roope Tonteri, Seppe Smits and Niklas Mattsson will also hit the show.

A newly recognized FIS-A official event, the Air+Style Beijing World Cup is also the qualification event and points race of the 2018 Pyeongchnag Winter Games.
