LaValleehas been a Winter X Games athlete since 2003. 

“It has been a question I have been getting for the past few years … “How much longer will you do freestyle?” Freestyle at X Games has been an incredible opportunity for me and my snowmobiling career. From a snocross racer, it expanded my vision of what I was capable of and made me look more at what was possible on a snowmobile. I am forever grateful for the opportunities and experiences that have come from freestyle at X Games. I’ll still be going to Aspen to support the athletes and the X Games, but it sure will be different not competing.” – Levi LaVallee
