Mikael Kingsbury of Canada and compatriot Audrey Robichaud won World Cup mogul races in Inawashiro, Japan, on Saturday.
Kingsbury, the defending World Cup champion, scored 23.41 points to secure his sixth title this season. Bradley Wilson of the United States was second, followed by Alex Bilodeau of Canada.
After eight of 12 events, Kingsbury leads the standings with 705 points. Bilodeau is next with 513. Patrick Deneen of the United States is third with 443.
Kingsbury said a fresh dump of snow overnight made for a soft course in qualifications, but turned slippery after the weather became overcast for the finals.
"I had a difficult time in the finals run, actually I didn't ski the run I wanted to ski but I fought and made it into the super finals," said the 20-year-old in a press release. "It was very slick so you really had to control your speed, I learned from my finals run and managed to put it together for a clutch performance in the end, so I'm super stoked."
Robichaud won her first title of the season in the women's event, scoring 20.62 points to finish ahead of Nikola Sudova of the Czech Republic and Chloe Dufour-Lapointe of Canada.
Justine Dufour-Lapointe of Canada, who leads the mogul standings with 478 points, was fourth.
