Jones became the first Briton to win back-to-back gold medals in January

Bristol snowboarder Jenny Jones has won her second gold medal of the winter, by taking the slopestyle title at the European X Games in Tignes, France.

The 29-year-old boarder has already clinched an X Games title in Aspen in January, following on from her inaugural win last year.

X Games events are regarded on a par with the Winter Olympics in prestige.

Jones' final score of 92.33 towered over the other contestants, none of whom exceeded 90.
