Dual Moguls Canceled in Tazawako
Sunday’s dual moguls FIS Freestyle World Cup in Tazawako, Japan was canceled due to heavy fog and snow.
The organizing committee successfully battled the inclement weather on Saturday, but after many delays on Sunday, FIS called the race. “We’ve been forced to cancel today’s dual moguls World Cup competition due to heavy fog and snow pushing the programme back to the point that we could no longer successfully complete the event,” tweeted FIS. “We’d like to thank the organisers here in @tazawakoski and all the phenomenal volunteers and staff who worked so hard to make the event a success. We’ll be back next year!”
Hannah Soar, Tess Johnson, Jaelin Kauf, Kai Owens, Emerson Smith, Dylan Walczyk, Brad Wilson, Jesse Andringa, Kalman Heims, Alex Lewis and Nick Page were scheduled to compete.
Next up, the U.S. Freestyle Ski Team heads to Almaty, Kazakhstan, for dual moguls and aerials.
