Sporting Performance The 1999/2000 season was a record breaking one for Australian skiing and snowboarding. Jacqui Cooper became the first Australian to win back to back World Cup skiing titles. With a second double twisting triple somersault added to her repertoire – a full tuck full - Jacqui won both Mt Buller events, won again in Deer Valley and Piancavallo and picked up a silver medal in Heavenly Valley to also capture consecutive World Cup overall freestyle titles.
