Source publication date:
Officials postponed the Olympic men’s aerials competition to Friday, 20 February, after a forecast of substantial snowfall in Livigno. The adjustment followed earlier weather disruption on Tuesday and came after the women’s competition had been completed under improved conditions.
The updated programme placed the first qualification round at 10:30, the second at 11:15 and the finals at 13:30 on Friday. FIS reported that the expected snowfall was heavier than the conditions responsible for the initial changes earlier in the week.
The decision was made in advance to seek more stable conditions for the men’s event. Organisers identified athlete safety and consistent competition conditions as priorities when moving the programme, while retaining all qualification and final rounds in the revised schedule.
