Max Langenhan kept up the excellent form that has seen him win every Junior World Cup event this season as he completed the course in an overall time of 1min 43.66secs after two runs.

The 18-year-old was the only athlete to clock a run time under 52 seconds, doing so on both of his runs, as he won gold.

His compatriots David Nössler and Paul-Lukas Heider completed the podium line-up with times of 1:44.247 and 1:44.349 respectively.

The home favourite also took the gold medal in the women's event with Jessica Tiebel coming out on top with an overall time of 1:23.951 after two runs, including one that came below the 42-second mark at 41.86.

Russia's Tatiana Tcvetova claimed silver in 1:24.373 with Jessica Degenhardt of Germany just 0.12 seconds behind her in third.

Tomorrow's action will see the junior team and doubles medals contested.
