Four Team USA athletes—Charlie Mickel, Nick Page, Dylan Walczyk and Landon Wendler—competed in the men’s dual moguls. The event made its debut in the 2026 Games.
MILAN, Metropolitan City of Milan — One day after the women’s dual moguls skiing event debuted at the 2026 Milan Cortina Winter Games, the men hit the slopes to battle for the gold medal.
The new event is within the freestyle skiing sport at the Winter Games. All rounds of competition, 1/16 finals, 1/8 finals, quarterfinals, semifinals and the final run for the podium happened Sunday morning.
Four Team USA athletes—Charlie Mickel, Nick Page, Dylan Walczyk and Landon Wendler—competed in the men’s event in its first year at the Olympics.
But the day was won by Canadian freestyle skiing great Mikael Kingsbury, who upheld his reputation as the best in the bumps, winning the first Olympic gold in men’s dual moguls. The gold was Kingsbury’s fifth Olympic medal.
Kingsbury defeated his top rival, Ikuma Horishima of Japan, in the head-to-head final.
In one of the more bizarre moments in the 2026 games, Horishima finished one of his qualifying runs skiing backwards. Horishima took home silver.
How are dual moguls scored at the Olympics?
Dual moguls made its Olympic debut in the 2026 Winter Games. The bone-rattling event is a twist on the classic moguls competition, which has been an official Olympic program since 1992, upping the ante with single-elimination faceoff runs.
Competitors in the freestyle skiing sport navigate a series of snow mounds, or moguls, while also flipping and twisting off two jumps.
Dual moguls force two athletes to compete side-by-side on a course divided into two lanes that measure between 200 and 270 meters. Competitors cut down the bumpy ski slope course with two opportunities for jumps and aerial tricks to help secure the highest score.
The athlete with the highest score advances to the next round and continues through the bracket until the final event.
Scoring is based on a combination of turns (how they handle the moguls, the tighter your legs stay together the better), air (what they do over the jumps) and speed. The evaluations come from either seven judges, split 5-2 for technique, or a panel of five judges split 3-2 for technique and jumps, according to the Olympics.
Turns count for 60% of the total score, while air and speed each count for 20%.
In the case that the competitors tie in speed, they both get only half the speed votes.
