SYDNEY: Australia celebrated their best-ever Winter Olympics following Lydia Lassila's victory in the women's aerials.
It was Australia's third medal in Vancouver following Torah Bright's gold in the women's halfpipe and Dale Begg-Smith's silver in the men's moguls.
It is the first time Australia have won three medals at a Winter Olympics and surpasses the country's previous best of two golds at the 2002 Salt Lake Games when speedskater Steven Bradbury and aerial skier Alisa Camplin stood atop the podium.
