Team Summit skier Jenna Riccomini bounced back from a difficult slopestyle final Tuesday, March 2, to take silver at Wednesday’s Revolution Tour halfpipe competition at Copper Mountain Resort.
Riccomini earned the silver-medal score of 85.00 just 0.25 points behind gold medalist Riley Jacobs despite a broken left thumb. The finish earned her the overall Revolution Tour women’s halfpipe freeski tour championship after a bronze in halfpipe at a tour stop in Aspen last week.
A broken hand might not seem like a huge deal, but when balancing in the halfpipe, Riccomini has grown fond of using ski poles to keep her balance. So Riccomini decided to have U.S. Rookie Team coach Ryan Wyble duct tape her Zipline poles to her hand at the top of the halfpipe before dropping in. The idea was recommended to Riccomini by a Team Summit mogul skier teammate.
