The third of four sets of Olympic freeski medals were decided today in the halfpipe of PyeongChang.
There really was only ever going to be one winner in the women’s event and so it proved.
Simply put, nobody has a run that can match Cassie Sharpe on her day.
79.7 nice run but not great on the grabs.
No grabs but better amplitude.
- Brita Sigourney: Straight air mute, ao japan (15ft), 9 tail (miss?
), alleyoop 5, right 7.
Better grabs but lower amplitude than Brita… 92.2.
- Cassie Sharpe: Left 9 tail, right 9 (missed?
), flair tindy, 360, switch 3, straight air trucker, left 10 tail/tindy.
At this point it was pretty much over.
All three runs today she crashed on that hit on what was almost certainly a medal run.
Some whiffed grabs though and it’s not a podium.
Grabs better than Annalisa, better amplitude.
Gold: Cassie Sharpe
Silver: Marie Martinod
Bronze: Brita Sigourney
4.
