The 19-year-old was the only competitor to soar past the 100-metre barrier on both jumps for a total of 278.5 points.

Defending World Cup champion Daniela Iraschko-Stolz of Austria (251.7 pts) was second while Slovenia's Ema Klinec was third (250.2).

Olympic champion Carina Vogt disappointed home fans with a poor 28th place finish.
