Liz Gardner has finished in fifth place in the Moscow aerial skiing World Cup, topping the Australian performances in an event that the Flying Kangaroos were relieved to complete unharmed. Competing on a temporary jump hill constructed from scaffolding in the grounds of the University of Moscow, athletes battled strong headwinds and struggled to get enough speed for their takeoffs.
