Leith & Jacobellis Sixth in Mixed Snowboard Cross Team

Hydro Flask U.S. Snowboard Team athletes Senna Leith and Lindsey Jacobellis finished in sixth place in the second mixed snowboard cross team World Cup race of the season in Cervinia, Italy. 

In the snow-capped mountains of Breuil-Cervinia, with the Matterhorn as its backdrop, two-time Olympic gold medalist Jacobellis and Leith took on the world's best snowboard cross riders to battle it out in the mixed team event. After competing in quarterfinals, Jacobellis and Leith were set to compete in the small finals and ultimately ended up in the sixth spot overall.

The mixed team podium was led by Omar Visntin and Michela Moioli of Italy, Loan Bozzolo and Chloe Trespeuch of France in second and Kalle Koblet and Sina Siegenthaler of Switzerland in third.

Teammates Cody Winters and Stacy Gaskill also competed in the event, ending up in 11th. This comes a day after Winters clenched his best World Cup result in snowboard cross landing in fourth. 

Up next, the team travels to St. Moritz, Switzerland on Jan. 25-26.
