Nick Baumgartner and Lindsey Jacobellis of the United States won the event.

Omar Visintin and Michela Moioli of Italy won the silver medal, and Éliot Grondin and Meryeta O'Dine of Canada bronze.

However, Eva Samková from the Czech team was injured during the event and had to miss the Olympics.

In the women's run, O'Dine and Caterina Carpano, who were on positions 3 and 4, fell, leaving Moioli and Jacobellis to decide on gold and silver.

Moioli was initially leading, but Jacobellis managed to overtake her taking the gold.
