Luke Deane has finished sixth in a Europa Cup giant slalom race in Levi, Finland, his first outing for the season and the first since injury cut short his 2003/04 tour.

The SSA/NSW Institute of Sport skier recorded the fastest time in the second run to secure his first top ten placing, and his first top 50 in fact.

The event was won by Italian Mirko de Florian in a time of 2 minutes 09.61 seconds, with Dominik Gschwenter of Austria in second place.

Deane’s time was 2:10.74, just 1.13 seconds behind.

There will be a second GS on the evening of December 2, AEST.
