The qualification runs took place on January 5, in which 17 skiers from the field of 83 qualified for the final runs. Benjamin Ogilvie (CAN) came out on top in the men's race. Local hero Lexi Dupont (CAN) impressed the judges with her "direct Fall-Line Skiing". The weather and snow in Revelstoke offer the perfect mix for an action-packed final weekend.
