The Nelson native scored 650 points at the 29-skier event in Vallnord-Arcalis, Andorra. Sweden’s Kristofer Turdell won the men’s side with a final score of 2,500.
The only other Canadian in the event, Pemberton’s Logan Pehota, finished fourth with 1,800 points.
Cooke’s next event is Feb. 6-12 in Chamonix, France.
