Lydia Lassila has taken out the World Masters water ramp aerial skiing competition in Mettmenstetten, Switzerland, clinching the event by performing just the fifth triple twisting triple somersault of her career. Lassila finished ahead of Torino gold medallist Evelyn Leu of Switzerland and 2002 World Cup champion Alla Tsuper of Belarus. The 26-year-old, who is training alongside OWI team-mates Liz Gardner and Bree Munro with OWI (and Swiss team) Head Coach Michel Roth, reports on the event and her European training:
