Dual moguls scoring

How do they do the scoring of dual moguls?

– Bec

Athletes are judged on three criteria: turns, air and speed.

There are seven judges, with each having five possible votes to compare the athletes on the red and blue courses.

According to the official Winter Olympics website, the judges use voting combinations of 5-0, 4-1, 3-2, 2-3, 1-4, or 0-5.

Getting across the line first doesn’t guarantee victory, as speed only accounts for a portion of the total score.

Moguls skiers facing challenging conditions

After days of gorgeous blue skies and warmish weather, the snow has come with a vengeance to the Livigno Valley.

Low cloud has brought steady falling snow, which has been coming down since last night.

It’ll be slower on the course, with the flat light making things extra hard for all competitors.

The two-time world champion says she is “heartbroken” to be ruled out of what would have been her fourth Winter Olympic Games.
