Freeski skier Morén, 17, had scored 78,33 and 46,66 and was only sixth when he made his last ride in the sunshine in Leysin in the mountains outside Lausanne. The best of the three rides were counted.

The Swede, with Sälen as a home club, made a successful effort but had to wait a long time for the points. Meanwhile, the commentator on the Olympic Channel erupted:

- The moraine made an effort that impressed us all.

When the score 89.33 came up, Morén applauded himself and even competitors and Swedish fans on the slop supported with an applause.

American Kiernan Fagan won at 90.66.
