Heavenly to host 2013-2014 U.S. Freestyle Championships

The U.S. Ski and Snowboard Association announced Thursday that the U.S. Freestyle Championships will return to Heavenly Mountain Resort for the 2013 and 2014 seasons.

Heavenly will play host to men’s and women’s aerials, dual moguls and moguls events March 29-31, 2013.

Heavenly last hosted the championships in 2004 and is one of only a handful of resorts to do so two years in a row.

Aerials competitions will again be at night under the lights while the competition finish lines will sit in direct view of the California Lodge.

Because the U.S. Championships event falls after the 2014 Olympic Winter Games in Sochi, spectators will also have the opportunity to watch U.S. Olympic athletes compete after they return from the Games.
