Bowman, Wise rule Park City Pipe
A pair of American halfpipe skiers had their way in the Park City pipe today (Feb. 2) in sunny Utah as David Wise and Maddie Bowman took home the wins.
It was the third straight U.S. Grand Prix win for Bowman – second straight for Wise. The two were crowned U.S. champions for their results across this season’s two U.S. Grand Prix halfpipes.
Park City’s 22-foot Eagle Superpipe glistened on a cloudless, sunny day that drew the world’s top halfpipe skiers back for the first time since it hosted the World Championships two years ago.
Qualifying in the middle of the pack was an unfamiliar feeling for Wise who was forced to rely on his first-run score when he fell in the middle of his second run.
“It was unfamiliar territory for me to be at the bottom watching. Usually I qualify high so I get to drop in towards the end but I was right in the middle of the field today so I had to do my second run, fall and then I had to watch all the best guys in the world drop in after me so that was pretty nerve racking but exciting and that is what this sport is all about,” said Wise, who’s first run score of 93.8 secured him his second career World Cup victory. “That’s my statement banner run for the year, back-to-back-to-back double corks. It’s my way of saying ‘this is what I like about skiing.’ I was glad I put it down on my first run because I fell on my second run.”
Fellow American Torin Yater-Wallace was just 0.2 points behind in second place followed by France’s Kevin Rolland, who took a silver medal in the same pipe two years ago, in third today.
Bowman also did her homework early in the best-of-two-run format, earning a 85.2-point first run score that held on for the win.
“I was pretty tired coming out of X Games, but this weather brings out the best in everyone,” said Bowman. “I was really excited to ski today and I had a great time. It was such a nice surprise to win a National Championship, I wasn’t expecting it! Next up we head to Sochi and I am super excited to check out Russia.”
The win gave Bowman a clean sweep of the two Grand Prix’s after her win at Copper Mountain in January. She also claimed her fourth first place finish on the 2013 AFP World Tour and overtakes Annalisa Drew in the top spot on the AFP womens Halfpipe World Ranking.
Japan’s Ayana Onozuka finished second ahead of Virginie Faivre of Switzerland in third.
The World Cup weekend in Park City wraps up tonight in Deer Valley with men’s and women’s dual moguls competitions.
