Vic Wild has won the gold medal in the men's snowboarding parallel slalom competition at the Sochi Winter Olympics.
The United States-born athlete, who competes for the Russian Federation, secured a place in the big final after beating Benjamin Karl of Austria in the semis.
Wild would face off against Zan Kosir of Slovenia, who defeated Aaron March of Italy in his semi-final.
In the big final, the 27-year-old beat his European opponent in two close runs to secure gold and become the first athlete to win two snowboarding golds at the same Olympics.
Meanwhile, March slipped up in the second run of the small final to gift Karl a straightforward run on his way to the bronze medal.
