Australian aerial skiers have soared their way to a historic clean sweep of the first four places at the iconic World Cup event in Deer Valley.
It is the first time an Australian team has achieved such a feat.
Leading the way in Utah was two-time world champion Laura Peel, who claimed her third straight victory and 12th win of her career, with defending World Cup champion Danielle Scott second.
Abbey Willcox was third and Airleigh Frigo fourth.
Competing on the historic 2002 Olympic Course, where Alisa Camplin secured Australia's first snow sports gold medal, athletes encountered challenging weather throughout the week.
Warm conditions led to the cancellation of two training days, and heavy snowfall on the event day forced the qualification round to be rescheduled to the night final session.
In difficult conditions, Peel reduced her degree of difficulty to double somersaults, scoring 87.88 points for her full-full jump and advancing to the top-six super final in first place.
Willcox, Scott and Frigo also performed the same full-full jump, securing second, third and fourth places with scores of 82.53, 79.38, and 78.12, respectively.
In the super-final, athletes were able to perform the same jump from the qualification round, and all the Aussies chose to compete with the full-full jump.
Peel secured victory with a score of 87.57, followed closely by Scott with 86.31.
Willcox earned the bronze medal with 81.58, and Frigo finished fourth with 69.30.
"I am really happy to have the yellow leads bib,'' said 35-year-old Peel, from Canberra.
"We are halfway through the season now, and three back-to-back-wins is super exciting, and tonight was so special having an Aussie sweep of the podium and Airleigh as well in fourth place.''
Scott was obviously delighted to be part of the historic clean sweep.
"It's incredible, I am so happy,'' said the 34-year-old from NSW.
"Deer Valley really is a special place for me, it's my second home, and to take out the sweep with Laura and Abbey and Airleigh in fourth, we are making history, it's really cool for Australia."
Deer Valley is certainly a happy hunting ground for 28-year-old Brisbane skier Willcox.
"Every World Cup podium I have had has been in Deer Valley, so it's cool to continue that streak, and to share it with two other Aussies and make history with a clean sweep" she said.
Missing out on finals were other Flying Kangaroos Sidney Stephens (14th), Elise Coleiro (15th) and Reilly Flanagan (24th).
After four events, Peel has extended her position at the top of the World Cup standings with 310 points.
Scott moved into second place with 224 points, while Willcox and Frigo are in eighth and ninth places with 138 and 133 points, respectively.
The next World Cup event for the aerial skiing athletes is on February 23-24 at the Beidahu ski resort in China.
