Wells Dolson and Drake Lovlien scissored their way through the bumps to first-place finishes, and other Sun Valley Ski Education Foundation athletes skied their way to second-place finishes in this week’s Roundhouse Rumble.

The Sun Valley Ski Education Foundation Freestyle team hosted the fourth annual Roundhouse Rumble Feb. 21-22 on Bald Mountain’s Roundhouse Slope. The competition welcomed 80 athletes from California, Colorado, Idaho and Utah for two Singles Mogul events and one Dual Mogul event over the two days.

"The Freestyle crew had a great weekend at The Roundhouse Rumble competing in moguls and duals at Roundhouse. The team handled changing conditions well and showed strong progression in turns, air control, and speed," said SVSEF Freestyle Coach Rainey Wilson. "Lots of proud moments and great energy heading into the next stretch of competitions!"

Wells Dolson took second place in the Women’s Singles Overall and first in Women’s Duals Overall.

The two-run Singles Mogul event was held on Saturday with Wells Dolson leading the way for SVSEF women with a runner-up finish and event score of 70.65. Isla Sundby rounded out the top 10 in 7th. On the men’s side, SVSEF freestyle skiers dominated the podium with Drake Lovlien (2nd), Will Hausman (4th), and Sylas Barrett (6th) all racing well. 

Dolson again topped the SVSEF women’s field on Sunday for Moguls Singles Run competition with a 5th place finish. Lovlien and Hausman delivered standout performances for the men with second and fifth placed finishes respectively. Sylas Barrett added another strong result in ninth. 

It was a sweep at the top for the Duals Mogul with Dolson claiming the women’s title and Lovlien taking the men’s title in the bracket-style Duals competition. Beau Forelli was the next highest men’s finisher, advancing to the Top 8, with Hausman, Moises Bicas-Dolgen, and Sylas Barrett all reaching the Top 16.
