The Swedish team of Frida Hansdotter, Maria Pietilae-Holmner, Emelie Wikstroem, Mattias Hargin, Andre Myhrer and Matts Olsson cinched the title after defeating Germany 3-1 in the final.

A total of eight teams were registered for the parallel event, meaning the competition began in the quarter-final stage. 

Sweden defeated Austria 3-3 in the last eight before narrowly making it past France in the semi-finals, due to having a quicker overall time, after the contest had ended 2-2.

The big final saw Sweden's Frida Hansdotter defeat Germany's Lena Duerr in the opening race.

Germany's Stefan Luitz was unable to finish, handing Matthias Hargin of Sweden his country's second point before Emelie Wikstroem secured the title with a win over Marina Waller of Germany.

André Myhrer lost out to Germany's Linus Strasser in the final race but it was too late with Sweden claiming the 3-1 victory.

France coasted to the bronze medal after winning gold at the World Championships in this event in St Moritz.

The team of Adeline Baud Mugnier, Coralie Frasse Sombet, Jean-Baptiste Grange and Julien Lizeroux proved too fast for their respective Italian opponents as they went on to claim a comfortable 4-0 win.

Tomorrow will see the men's giant slalom and women's slalom events take centre stage.

The World Cup meeting will then conclude with the women's giant slalom and men's slalom competitions on Sunday (March 19).
