The first FIS Big Air of the season is always an interesting marker for the rest of the calendar.
It sets the standard, both for the riders and for the judges.
Johanne Killi nearly stomped a super clean switch right dub 10 but couldn’t hold it through the transition.
He still scored an 86.25 for an early lead though.
Henrik slid into third for run one with a dub bio 14 tweaked safety.
Jesper backed up a first-run switch blender dub 14 mute with a forward dub 16 blunt.
Teale Harle pulled his ski off mid switch dub 16 mute, a good ol' Atomic/Salomon Bindings classic.
Andri Ragettli stomped a triple 16 ‘double grab’.
I’m gonna say double safety.
But the score was enough to bump Henrik, who crashed, out of third.
Birk Ruud also crashed, leaving Alex Hall with a victory lap… the domination continues.
Nonetheless, he went for an insane-looking switch dub 14 ‘double tail’ but wrapped around style.
He didn’t get it perfect but it’s a warning of bigger scores to come!
