Moguls: Kearney, Kingsbury stay hot in Calgary
The World Cup moguls tour has been dominated by a pair of North Americans this season and today (Jan. 28) was no exception.
American Hannah Kearney and Canadian Mikael Kingsbury stayed perfect today, each earning their fifth World Cup victory of the season in Calgary, A.B.
With his winning performance today, 19-year-old Kingsbury is one gold medal away from tying the FIS World Cup record of six consecutive wins.
Scoring 24.30, Kingsbury took the win in a somewhat anti-climactic super final today. Jeremy Cota of the U.S. was second at 23.94; while the rest of the competition – American Sho Kashima and Sho Endo of Japan fell in the final round, winding up third and fourth, consecutively.
Unfortunately Kashima, who missed the majority of the 2010 Olympic season with a hurt knee, injured his knee on his final round and had to make his way to the podium in a leg splint.
Kingsbury said his best run of the day was in the finals; where he pulled a double back flip off the top air followed by a cork 720 on the second jump.
“I’m super excited to win five in a row,” said the Deux-Montagnes, Que. native. “And it was a great event, this was the best course I’ve seen in Calgary.”
On the women’s side, American Hannah Kearney continued to dominate the field and won today with 24.82 points, extending her wining streak to 12 over the last two seasons. Montreal’s Justine Dufour-Lapointe earned her fourth-straight silver medal with a score of 23.11 while Kearney’s teammate KC Oakley was third at 22.06 and Quebec City’s Audrey Robichaud was the fourth woman in the super final, at 21.76.
World Cup action continues in Calgary tomorrow with the Aerials event of the Canada Post Grand Prix.
