Snowboarder Laurie Blouin took 3rd place in the big jump event at the Chur Snowboard World Cup on Saturday in Switzerland. The Stoneham athlete scored 163.00 points on his two best of three jumps.
The Japanese Fukada Mari (181.50 points) and Iwabuchi Reira (167.50 points) achieved the double.
The day before, at the same place, Quebecer Dylan Deschamps had shone in the final of the big jump in freestyle skiing.
This is a first podium for Laurie Blouin since the World Cup in Calgary in February 2023. She also won two medals during the 2023 X Games in Aspen.
The 28-year-old surfer finished off the podium a few times last season, including in the big jump at the last World Championships which took place in Bakuriani, Georgia, as well as in the acrobatic downhill during the Beijing Olympic Games. .
