Freestyle skiing was an official sport discipline for the first time at the 1992 Winter Olympics, with medals awarded in the moguls event.
Aerials were dominated by the Canadians and in particular by the world champion Philippe LaRoche and by Nicolas Fontaine.
For the ballet, a bit similar to figure skating but on snow, Lane Spina from the US, second in Calgary, took the third place behind Kristiansen who had put emphasis on his aerial performances.
Both of them were defeated by Fabrice Becker from France who won points on composition and style for a well choreographed tango performance.
Among the women, Conny Kissling won her 102nd victory, in front of Cathy Féchoz from Courchevel.
