Australia’s best young Mogul talent headed to Mt Buller on the weekend for the Victorian leg of the Junior National Mogul Championships, and the results could not have gone more as planned, with Team Buller and Buller Riders athletes winning five medals.

The highlight was without a doubt the Lovick brothers, Robert and Tom, finishing in first and second in the Junior Men’s category. Robert, who is training this season with the New South Wales Institute of Sport (NSWIS) put down a great run to comfortably win the event, with brother Tom impressing the crowd with the biggest air of the day, a 720 rotation off the top air.
NSWIS athlete Sam Hall was third.

In the Junior Women’s division, NSWIS athlete Emma Chapman-Davies took out her division, with Buller Riders skier Lainie Plummer finishing in second place. Eliz Graham from Perisher Blue was third.

The Youth Men’s division saw NSWIS athletes David Graham and Rohan Chapman-Davies finish in first and second. Buller Riders athlete Jack Steel made it onto his first youth podium in third place.

International athlete Elle Koyander of Great Britain won the Youth Women’s division, ahead of Buller Rider Georgia Miller and Nicole Parks of Perisher in third place.
