    Australian snowboard cross duo Lambert and Baff reach World Cup podium

    With the World Championships taking place next week, Australia's Adam Lambert and Josie Baff produce promising form at the final lead-up event in Austria.


    Australian snowboard cross riders have claimed two silver medals at the World Cup event in Montafon, Austria, with Adam Lambert and Josie Baff reaching the podium.

    Lambert won silver in the men's individual race, giving the 27-year-old back-to-back World Cup medals

    He won each of his preliminary races to qualify for the big final, where he faced three French rivals: Loan Bozzolo, Aidan Chollet and Merlin Surget.

    Bozzolo won gold and Chollet took bronze.

    Lambert paired up with Baff to finish second in the mixed team big final.

    The Australians were edged out for the gold by France's Bozzolo and Julia Pereira de Sousa.

    Baff placed fourth in the women's individual big final, with France's Léa Casta winning gold ahead of compatriot Pereira de Sousa and Great Britain's Charlotte Bankes.

    Lambert and Baff will be part of the Australian squad at next week's World Championships in St Moritz, Switzerland.
