The incident occurred in the mountains of central Japan on Sunday.
Former world champion halfpipe skier Kyle Smaine, who won the world championship in 2015, died Sunday after getting buried in an avalanche in Japan. He was 31 years old.
Smaine was with two other skiers at the time of the avalanche, according to a social media post from photographer Grant Gunderson, who was also on the trip. One of them was also killed in the incident, while the other emerged unharmed after being buried in five feet of snow.

LeSean McCoy weighs in on the Philadelphia Eagles 31-7 win in over the San Francisco 49ers in the NFC Championship Game and explains the win was not impressive.
The league’s conference championships were greatly influenced by the amount of players who weren’t available, and there are several potential culprits worth examining.
Thirteen days until the Super Bowl.
Joy Taylor weighs in on Joseph Ossai’s costly penalty late in the 4th quarter of the AFC Championship Game and explains Ossai deserves a bit of the blame but not all of it. Joy believes Joe Burrow and the Bengals offense deserve blame because they were unable to take command of the game with 2:30 remaining in the 4th quarter.
Patrick Mahomes is headed back to the Super Bowl and the Chicago Bears will be watching at home. That didn’t necessarily have to be the case, and now they look terrible in hindsight.
In 2017, Mahomes was drafted No. 10 overall out of Texas Tech by the Chiefs. He has since gone on to win two MVPs, a Super Bowl, and a Super Bowl MVP, and is already one of the greatest quarterbacks of all-time at just 27 years young.
Nine teams passed on Mahomes in the 2017 draft. Many of which did not need a quarterback, so it makes sense.
Chicago, on the other hand, desperately needed a quarterback.
Rookie San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy suffered a nightmarish end to his fairytale season.
Facing the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC Championship Game Sunday, just four quarters away from the Super Bowl, Purdy was knocked out in the first offensive drive of the game after getting his throwing elbow hit by Eagles pass rusher Haason Reddick.
After a day of testing, Purdy’s injury diagnosis has returned with damning news, though it definitely could have gone worse.
Pratt’s outburst was out of line with the otherwise united Bengals front in support of Ossai on Sunday.
The Eagles thoroughly beat down the 49ers in the NFC Championship Game 31-7 to advance to Super Bowl LVII. With the Eagles facing Nick’s Chiefs in the Super Bowl Nick explains he is nervous ahead of the matchup. Nick believes the Eagles won their title game because of Brock Purdy’s injury but explains they were the better team in that matchup before Purdy’s early exit. Nick looks to the Chiefs defensive performance in the AFC Championship game and explains they played their part in the win.
The 49ers and Eagles were supposed to deliver a legendary game. But it went off the rails from the beginning.
