BOREAL — Maddie Bowman of South Lake Tahoe and James Campbell of Windham, N.H., won the women’s and men’s halfpipe skiing on the second day of the U.S. Revolution Tour at Boreal Mountain Resort.

Bowman fought blustery conditions to win her first Rev Tour halfpipe competition of the year.

“It was a little windy and chilly, but besides that the halfpipe was nice and I was pretty happy with my performance,” said Bowman. “Nothing to complain about, I had a fun day.”

Bowman used a winning run of straight air grab, leftside 5, straight air grab, leftside 5, straight air, to leftside 7 to grab the win over second-place Jessica Breda of Marshfield, Mass., and third-place Presley Doyle of Homewood.

The men battled the same wind on their runs, but Campbell seemed unaffected, stomping his run en route to the victory. Campbell was followed by Austin Simonpietri of Truckee in second and Carson Lehouillier of Reno in third.
