Alexander Hall (born September 21, 1998), known colloquially as A Hall, is an American freestyle skier from Fairbanks, Alaska. At the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing, China, while competing for Team USA, Hall won the Olympic gold medal in Freestyle skiing â Men's slopestyle. He currently holds 14 medals from the Winter X Games, being the first to win all four divisions (Slopestyle, Big Air, Knuckle Huck, & Real Ski) as well as to land the first 2160 (6 full rotations) in competition.
Having moved to Switzerland at an early age, Hall then returned to the United States at age 16 to finish high school at the Winter Sports School in Park City. He started competing at the FIS World Cup level during the next season and was then invited to the 2016 Lillehammer Youth Olympics, where he placed second in Slopestyle and fourth in Halfpipe. At the end of the 2025 season, Hall had accumulated 16 World Cup podiums, including 10 first places, 2 Crystal Globes, and 2 World Championship bronze medals. Hall developed his early competitive acumen during the Swisscom Freeski Tour, as well as the U.S. Revolution Tour, experiencing an important break-out moment during the 2015 Dumont Cup (USA) by placing seventh in this Slopestyle event organized by the Association of Freeskiing Professionals (AFP). Hall became a member of the U.S. Ski & Snowboard Team at age 17, first joining the Development (Rookie) team before being promoted a year later to the Pro team. He placed sixteenth in Slopestyle at the 2018 Pyeongchang Winter Olympics, and first in Slopestyle and eighth in Big Air at the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics. Hall currently rides for Samsung, Moncler, Rao's, Faction Skis, Monster Energy, Dalbello, Look Bindings, and Wells Lamont.
On February 10, 2026, Hall won silver in slopestyle skiing during the 2026 Winter Olympics, finishing with a score of 85.75 in the final.
Hall credits much of his rising enthusiasm for the sport to attending ZurichâÂÂs annual freestyle.ch ski event with friends and older brother, Aldo, a snowboarder who also served as his first videographer while helping him secure initial sponsors that included Surface Skis, Panda Poles, Shred Optics, and Slytech. His parents, Elena Conti (an Italian citizen from Bologna) and Marcus Hall (a U.S. citizen from Salt Lake City) are both professors at the University of Zurich. When interviewed by USA Today in 2022, Alex Hall noted that he holds both Italian and U.S. passports, and once even talked "with Italian coaches about potentially competing for them" but that after moving to Park City at 16 he quickly realized he wanted to ski for the U.S. Alex HallâÂÂs multi-country background means that beyond English, he speaks fluent German and Swiss German, and intermediate French and Italian. As a middle schooler at the Inter-Community School Zurich, Hall was voted Most Valuable basketball player, and also played as a football goalkeeper for the youth division of Grasshopper Club Zürich. Off the slopes, Alex Hall relaxes by surfing, golfing, tennis, fly fishing, and occasionally ceramics. By taking most of his college classes online, Hall was in 2025 a senior at the University of Utah, pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Environmental & Sustainability Studies.
