American duo Elana Meyers Taylor and Cherrelle Garrett maintained their unbeaten start to the latest World Cup season, winning the second event in Calgary, Canada on Saturday.
Pilot Meyers Taylor won Olympic silver alongside Lauryn Williams earlier this year at Sochi 2014, and she is certainly carrying that good form into the new campaign, despite switching to partner Garrett.
The pair were fastest on both the runs, clocking 55.96 and 55.80 to post a combined time of 1:51.76 minutes.
Second went to Germany's Anja Schneiderheinze and Franziska Bertels, 0.45 seconds back, while home favourites Kaillie Humphries and Kate O'Brien completed the podium with a combined time of 1:52.65.
It leaves Meyers Taylor out front in the World Cup standings on 450 points, 48 ahead of Schneiderheinze, who is tied with America's Jazmine Fenlator.
