If you liked the look of Danielle Scott's spectacular victory at Deer Valley then you're in luck because there's plenty more where that came from.

The Australian aerial skier retained the leader's yellow jersey with her second victory of the Freestyle World Cup season after nailing her first triple twisting backflip to storm home.

"I really set myself out on a mission to get triples going and I ended up doing one of the biggest jumps I've ever done," Scott told ABC Sport.

"It's been exciting. I had a bit of a slow start to the season with my ski bag being lost so I've had different skis every week and we were hoping to do triples a bit sooner and it was just a bit of a shamble.

"To finally get up there and complete them — our sport has a lot of variables like wind and conditions and stuff like that but everything went to plan.

"I put it all on the line last night and that's kind of my plan, put everything on the line. It's high risk, high reward."
