SNOWBASIN -- A pair of youngsters made it interesting, but couldn't quite come up with enough Saturday night to unseat the reigning king of the freeski superpipe at the Winter Dew Tour.

Twenty-one-year-old David Wise of Reno, Nev. won the mens freeski superpipe finals Saturday with a score of 94.50, but France's Kevin Rolland took home his second consecutive Dew Cup at the Toyota Championships after finishing second with 93.00. Up-and-coming sensation Torin Yater-Wallace, of Colorado, was third with 92.75.

LAKE PLACID, N.Y. -- Mac Bohonnon squints in the bright sunlight, the rugged high peaks of the Adirondack Mountains looming in the distance like so many sentinels. He checks his bindings, flips down his glasses, pushes off, and down a steep u-shaped ramp he plummets.

Seconds later, he's hurtling 60 feet skyward, his body twisting and turning in flight before his skis slam the surface of a 17-foot-deep pool of water with a huge thud, creating a giant splash that sends waves caroming off and over the sides.

GARMISCH-PARTENKIRCHEN, Germany -- A career milestone and a rare family reunion. All of which left Lindsey Vonn in tears, and it made for a perfect day.

Vonn captured her 50th World Cup victory Saturday, winning the downhill on the demanding Kandahar course with temperatures plunging to minus 13.

"It's crazy. I am at a loss for words. I already cried with one of the TV crews and that is enough crying for the day," Vonn said. "Fifty World Cup wins is a huge mark for me in my career and more than I even thought possible. I just wanted the 50th win."
