Qualification
The qualification round took place on the afternoon of February 12, with 30 skiers competing. The top 16 advanced to the final.
Final
The final took place on the evening of February 12, with Janne Lahtela, the second-best qualifier, just beating top qualifier Travis Mayer for the gold medal. The final wasn't without controversy however as Moseley's "dinner roll" was scored as a 360 with a break of form. Following the event FIS updated its scoring system making changes which if done earlier would have resulted in Moseley winning the gold medal.
