Australian moguls skier Matt Graham produced arguably the best run of his career in capturing his first World Cup medal.
In finishing second in Deer Valley the 20-year-old joined an exclusive club of just three other Australian men - Adrian Costa, Dale Begg-Smith and Michael Robertson - who have pocketed a World Cup medal in moguls.
Graham became the first Australian man to claim a moguls skiing medal since Begg-Smith was second in Sierra Nevada, Spain five years ago.
Canadian Mikael Kingsbury took out the event while Patrick Deneen from the US third.
With little more than a week before the World Championships in Austria, the result was timely one for Graham who had finished seventh at last year's Winter Olympics.
In the women's event Britt Cox and Nicole Parks also had solid results.
Cox, who had a delayed start to the season, finished the day in sixth place after qualifying through to the super-final and Parks placed 14th after also making the finals.
The women's event was won by American KC Oakley, with Canadians Justine Dufour-Lapointe and Cloe Dufour-Lapointe taking second and third.
