Just like yesterday, strong winds and heavy snowfall have made it extremely dangerous to hold such demanding and complex events, putting the athletes' safety at serious risk.

The tournament organizers have decided to delay the start of the qualification round until the weather stabilizes and no longer poses a threat to the competitors.

Yesterday, the women's big air event in Livigno was also postponed, falling victim to the same harsh conditions.
