Local freeskier James Woods will compete in Thursday morning’s Freestyle Skiing Men’s Ski Slopestyle event at the Winter Olympics.

There was concern on Friday after Woodsy picked up a hip injury and missed training earlier this week, but he is expected to take part on Thursday.

Qualification starts at 6:15am, with the final at 9:30am.
