Winter Games organisers have announced four athlete ambassadors for the event and also some big names who will be competing.
The four athlete ambassadors are all from New Zealand and have been performing well on the international stage in recent times.
The four are Tiarn Collins, Zoi Sadowski-Synnott, Nico Porteous and Alice Robinson, who were the youngest four members of the 2018 New Zealand Winter Olympics team.
Collins (19) is a World Cup medallist in both big air and slopestyle, a huge feat considering he competes against athletes 10 years older than him. He did not compete at the 2018 Olympics because of a training accident in Pyeongchang just before the event.
Sadowski-Synnott won the bronze medal in snowboard big air at the Winter Olympics and backed that up by winning the triple crown this year - X-Games gold, world champs gold and Burton US Open gold.
Porteous mirrored Zoi's historic Olympic success, making history again with a bronze medal in freeski halfpipe to becoming the country's youngest Olympic medallist at just 16 years, 91 days.
Robinson burst on to the global Alpine ski racing scene earlier this year when she won New Zealand's first Alpine ski racing World Cup medal in 17 years. She claimed a silver, just 0.30sec behind world No1 Mikaela Shiffrin at the World Cup finals giant slalom in Andorra. She is also the junior world champion in giant slalom.
Organisers have also confirmed Estonian freeski champion Kelly Sildaru will compete in the Winter Games FIS freeski World Cup halfpipe and both the FIS ANC halfpipe and slopestyle.
At just 17, Kelly is the 2019 FIS world championships gold medallist and a seven-time X-Games gold medallist.
Canadian Cassie Sharpe, the 2018 Winter Olympic Games halfpipe gold medallist, will also compete.
Miguel Porteous, older brother of Nico, will compete in the Winter Games halfpipe World Cup event.
American cross-country skier Jessie Diggins has confirmed she will be competing in the FIS ANC cross-country series at Snow Farm NZ. She had won an Olympic gold medal, four world champs podium finishes and has six World Cup victories.
