    Kiwi Speed Skier Tawny Wagstaff has claimed the first speed skiing World Cup podium of his career with a third place finish in France


    This result also marks the first speed skiing World Cup podium for a New Zealand athlete since record keeping started in 2002.

    Wagstaff reached a mind-boggling speed of 212.61 kilometres per hour to secure the bronze medal - just 1.9 kilometres per hour behind the winner.
