Day one of Level 1s Superunknown XII is in the books.
Or maybe its more like day one-and-a-half.
After all, we arrived last night.
Descended might be a better word from as far away as Olso and Moscow; from Fernie, B.C.
and Salt Lake City.
They got Dunkin Donuts four separate times, for the record.
Interestingly, there are no Quebeckers in this years superunknown.
So today, we learned a few things.
For one, Dylan Siggers is a funny kid, the kind of guy who can galvanize a group.
It also turns out Filmerunknown winner Danny Kushnerevich is everything youve ever imagined a Russian to be.
Nostrovia he said, grinning.
And I mean for some guys this was also their first morning in North America.
At some point the tension started to dissolve.
“That run was…” Alec Nelson said, trailing off.
Lotta potential, he finished, laughing.
This year’s wildcard winner Martin Solhaugen laced a clean misty 4 that got Josh Berman yelling his praise.
The guys are just getting warmed up, it’s going to be a good week.
