It\u2019s doubtful her competition felt the same way, however, after the 15-year-old Basalt High School student ran away with the women\u2019s halfpipe contest at the Aspen Snowmass Freeskiing Open on Saturday at Buttermilk Ski Area.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">\u201cIt\u2019s a nice feeling,\u201d Faulhaber said. \u201cJust to be able to win a decently big event at home is pretty great. Just super hyped to compete up against all these girls in my hometown. It\u2019s nice to sleep in my own bed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">It was Faulhaber\u2019s second time competing in the local Nor-Am Cup event. She took third last winter, her first season competing at the FIS level, behind winner Zoe Atkin of Great Britain and Utah\u2019s Jeanee Crane-Mauzy. This time around, Faulhaber left little to doubt, topping 90 in each of her three runs in the finals to win by a landslide.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Her third and final run of 95.60 was far more than she needed for the win. Pennsylvania\u2019s Jenna Riccomini, who trains out of Summit County, was second with 71.80 and Vail\u2019s Ava Surridge was third with 69.40. There was no qualifier for the women\u2019s halfpipe skiers as only eight entered the contest.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">\u201cNot as much as that, for sure. Not even close,\u201d Faulhaber said of feeling little to no pressure Saturday compared to her recent World Cup events. \u201cI landed my run several times before practice. Had some difficulty a few times, but it didn\u2019t really mess me up. So yeah, I felt pretty good about the whole thing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Faulhaber\u2019s run Saturday at Buttermilk was almost identical to the one she put down two weeks ago at a World Cup in Mammoth. The U.S. rookie team member finished seventh in what was her first World Cup final appearance in only three career World Cup starts.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">One reason Faulhaber chose to compete this week in Aspen opposed to go to Calgary for the final World Cup of the season was to chase down the season-long halfpipe crown in the North American Cup. With only next weekend\u2019s Nor-Am contest to go, which happens to be back in Calgary, Faulhaber holds a slight edge over Atkin in the standings. Atkin was 10th in the Calgary World Cup and did not compete in the Aspen Nor-Am.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText Subhead\">DYLAN LADD HOLDS ON FOR MEN\u2019S PIPE TITLE<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Lakewood\u2019s Dylan Ladd had a similar decision to make as Faulhaber. He did choose to go to the Calgary World Cup, but did not make it out of Wednesday\u2019s qualifying so hurried back to Aspen in time for Saturday\u2019s Nor-Am. That decision paid off after he won the men\u2019s halfpipe contest at Buttermilk, the second career Nor-Am Cup win for the 18-year-old U.S. rookie team athlete.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">\u201cIt means a lot,\u201d Ladd said. \u201cI\u2019ve been doing this comp for three or four years now, maybe five, and to finally take the top spot is amazing. It feels great.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Ladd scored 89.40 on the first of his two runs in finals to beat Aspen\u2019s Tristan Feinberg, who scored 86.80 on his second run, a slight hand drag derailing what was arguably the best run of the contest. Finland\u2019s Jon Sallinen, who trains with the Aspen Valley Ski and Snowboard Club, was third with 82.80.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Just missing the podium was 16-year-old Connor Ladd, Dylan\u2019s younger brother. He was fourth with 81.40, scored on his second run.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">\u201cIt\u2019s fun. It\u2019s also very competitive,\u201d Dylan Ladd said of competing against his brother in finals. \u201cWe are staring at each other being like, \u2018Hey, you are going to do good. But, I wouldn\u2019t be mad if you slightly screwed up.\u2019 But I always want to see him land a good run and he put a good one down today.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText Subhead\">FEINBERG CONTINUES RISE<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Feinberg, 16, likely is the next star in Aspen\u2019s heralded ski pipe dynasty, which currently includes two-time reigning X Games Aspen gold medalist Alex Ferreira and 20-year-old Cassidy Jarrell, who finished sixth in Friday\u2019s World Cup in Calgary.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Feinberg also competed in that World Cup, but did not make it past Wednesday\u2019s qualifying. It was only his fourth career World Cup start, his first coming last March in Mammoth. Saturday\u2019s runner-up finish in the halfpipe was his best career Nor-Am Cup finish, besting the third-place he had in the Copper Nor-Am back in December.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">\u201cGood to come back here and put down a run and get second. Really cool,\u201d Feinberg said. \u201cI\u2019ve been wanting to do well in this competition for a while and it felt really good to come back and do well.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Feinberg currently sits in third in the season-long Nor-Am Cup standings in halfpipe, behind leader Andrew Longino of Canada and Sallinen. Dylan Ladd is currently fifth and Aspen\u2019s Kai Morris is seventh with only next weekend\u2019s Nor-Am in Calgary to go. Morris did not make finals during Saturday\u2019s competition in Aspen, finishing 13th overall.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">With the competition season all but over, Feinberg will soon return to the classroom \u2014 he attends high school in Park City, Utah, over the spring and summer months \u2014 while squeezing in as much skiing and filming as he can over the next couple of months.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">The experience he\u2019s gained on the World Cup the past two seasons certainly has him eyeing bigger prizes down the line.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">\u201cIt\u2019s definitely really cool competing with all those big dogs and then cool competing with Cass,\u201d Feinberg said. \u201cTrying to get up there one day and win those competitions. So it\u2019s really cool to start dipping my toes into those competitions. It\u2019s super cool. Good experience competing with everyone I was watching when I was younger at X Games.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText Subhead\">BIG AIR AND SLOPESTYLE<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">In Saturday\u2019s big air contests at the Aspen Snowmass Freeskiing Open, it was Utah teen Troy Podmilsak who took the men\u2019s title, followed by veteran Quinn Wolferman of Montana and Rodney Koford, also of Utah.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">The women\u2019s big air crown went to Canada\u2019s Skye Clarke, who also had won Friday\u2019s slopestyle contest. Riccomini finished second, giving her the silver sweep of all three events at Buttermilk, while Canada\u2019s Megan Cressey was third in both big air and slopestyle to complete the identical podiums in both events.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Minnesota\u2019s Richard Thomas, a U.S. rookie team member, won Friday\u2019s men\u2019s ski slopestyle contest, beating Montana\u2019s Konnor Ralph and Canada\u2019s Dylan Deschamps. Koford was fourth.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText Tagline\"><a href=\"mailto:acolbert@aspentimes.com\">acolbert@aspentimes.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aspentimes.com\/sports\/basalts-faulhaber-lakewoods-ladd-win-ski-pipe-titles-at-aspen-freeski-open\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">via:: The Aspen Times<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hanna Faulhaber, 15, throws a trick on her last run of the women\u2019s superpipe finals during the Aspen Snowmass Freeskiing Open at Buttermilk on Saturday, Feb. 15, 2020.
