It was a sweep for U.S. Snowboarding Sunday with Lindsey Jacobellis (Stratton Mountain, VT) and teammate Nate Holland (Squaw Valley, CA) winning at the Veysonnaz World Cup. Jacobellis continued on a roll with her third straight win of the season to remain undefeated starting with her victory in the USANA Snowboardcross Cup at Telluride last month. The tour now swings back to the USA for next weekend's X Games in Aspen.

QUOTES Lindsey Jacobellis Today was a fight. I didn't have a great start, so I was trying to plan my way down the course and see what opportunities would open up for me.
I was kind of following Dominique (Maltais) down just waiting if I could make a pass somewhere. I saw a little opportunity and just went for it.
It's always a great goal to win every race. I just keep trying my best. I feel like I'm on a role, my body feels good. I'm happy with how I've been approaching mentally this year.
