KUALA LUMPUR: Waterski star Aaliyah Yoong Hanifah added another feather to her cap after breaking the Asian women's jump record at the Holy Cow Cup in Florida, United States, last weekend.
The 23-year-old recorded 51.9m at Lake Grew in Polk City, surpassing the previous Asian mark of 51.2m held by Japan's Saaya Hirosawa.
The feat also means Aaliyah now holds the Asian records in all three disciplines - tricks, jump and slalom - as well as overall.
Competing in the Oct 9-11 tournament, Aaliyah also improved her slalom personal best by clearing two buoys at an 11m rope length, building on her previous best of one buoy at 11.25m set at the Travers Grand Prix last month.
