No Eileen, No Megan Oldham, let’s see how things shake out!
Muriel Mohr, alternate #2 sent another perfect dub 10 - 82.66.
The speed looks good and so does the jump.
Shit’s gonna get wild here.
Anni Karava, steeze legend dropped third, already with a bronze to her name from the weekend.
Mengting Liu followed, another dub 12, safety, super flippy axis and stomped.
91.66 and the top spot with Mathilde and Tess to come.
Apparently we lost Mathilde and Olivia along the way as well.
Mengting launched a massive 1440 but couldn’t hold it.
Flora then dropped with the cleanest dub 12 safety of the day… keeping it chill until finals.
Tess was the last to drop in run 2.
Switch, 1440 absolutely stomped, lovely axis, held the safety to the bottom, earning a 93.33.
Muriel Mohr almost managed to up things to 1260 but got unstuck on the landing.
But let’s be real, this is what X Games is all about.
Anni, despite cleaning up her dub 10 mute wouldn’t break into finals.
Rell Harwood is honestly the MVP of the games IMO, Dub 1260 LEAD MUTE.
Though, as always with these comps the camaraderie and support is what it’s all about.
The push for the culture, the display of the highest level of skiing.
Flora would put down a “chill” dub 10.
Tess gave us a switch 5.
TO FINALS WE GO!
Sick send, we love to see it.
Flora put down an absolutely perfect 1440, safety grab, and a squatted out landing.
90 would put her right at the top and set the bar for the rest of the night.
Tess was last to drop, fiercely competitive and clearly locked in.
Switch 1440 attempt, didn’t quite get it around, just a feeler lap.
87.33 was worth second with 3 to drop.
Go argue about it in the forums.
