Kingsbury has now stood on top of the podium at every World Cup event since finishing second in Calgary in January 2017. With this gold, Kingsbury increases his historic all-time record to 48 World Cup wins. Kingsbury has already pre-qualified to represent Canada at PyeongChang 2018 in February.

In the women’s event, Andi Naude finished fifth with a solid run in the super final that scored 77.62 points. After losing her balance and finishing sixth yesterday, Naude was looking for a rebound performance tonight and certainly got it.

The Canadian skiers will return home for the next World Cup stop in Mont-Tremblant, Quebec, Saturday, January 20.
