With the Winter X Games XVI fast approaching, the list of invited athletes has been published – and here are just some of them from the Red Bull world.

More than 200 athletes from across global winter sports (including snowmobile riders Daniel Bodin and Levi LaVallee, pictured above) will travel to Aspen, Colorado from January 26–29 for Winter X 16, and then many will head to Tignes in France from March 14–16 for Winter X Games Europe. Let’s meet some of them…
