Australia’s Mogul Skiing Elite Set for ANC and ABOM events
Published Fri 22 Aug 2025
Toppa’s Dream at Perisher is ready to welcome Australia’s premier mogul skiers who are primed for two days of thrilling competition as part of the Australia New Zealand Cup (ANC), taking place from 26-27 August 2025.
The ANC marks the beginning of a pivotal week for Australia’s mogul skiing talent, culminating in the return of the iconic ABOM Mogul Challenge at Mt Buller on Saturday 30 August, which is now in its 33rd year.
Perisher’s ANC will feature a strong field of athletes, including competitors in the junior (14–19) category.
Olympic silver medallist Matt Graham, who is pursuing his 10th national title and eighth overall ANC crown is among the list of headline names competing. With two events scheduled, Graham could add a further two podium results to the 15 he has collected from this event over the years.
Following Perisher, attention shifts to Mt Buller, where anticipation is high for the ABOM’s long-awaited return. The dual moguls event is renowned for its intensity and spectacle and will once again light up the Chamois ski run, with daytime qualification rounds followed by electrifying night finals in the heart of the Mt Buller village.
Graham last won the ABOM in 2022 and a win this year would mark his eighth career title at this event.
But first, the triple Olympian is aiming to conquer the ANCs at Perisher and it’s there that he’s been fine tuning his preparation ahead of an important international season.
Will less than 200 days to go until the 2026 Olympic Winter Games in Milano-Cortina, both events promise world-class performances and fierce competition. Spectators can expect a dynamic showcase of elite talent as Australia’s top mogul skiers go head-to-head.
