  • 2010 and 2012 Winter X Games Champion.
  • Finished fourth in 2010 Olympic Games.

Interesting Fact: Del Bosco was in third place heading to the finish line in Vancouver. He went for a pass near the end of the race, sending him flying through the air and resulting in a fourth-place finish. He moved from Colorado to Montreal in 2011.

Chances: After the disappointing result in Vancouver, Del Bosco is determined to capture that elusive Olympic medal in Sochi and is considered to have a good chance.
