Americans Lindsey Jacobellis and Mick Dierdorff won the inaugural mixed snowboardcross world championship at Solitude on Sunday afternoon. The U.S. tandem won every heat en route to the first-ever world title. Dierdorff’s magical world championships end with two gold medals in tow. The 27-year-old from Steamboat Springs, Colo., won the men’s snowboardcross title Friday at Solitude. Jacobellis won her sixth world title Sunday. The four-time Olympian finished fifth overall in Friday’s women’s final.
“My goal in this event, of course, was to try to be first to give Lindsey as big of a gap as possible,” Dierdorff said.
