On to the second ski event of the day, women’s street style.
This set up is kind of weird, basically a one-hit wonder, live rankings and prelims yet again.
The set up was kinda whack so I’m just gonna throw tricks at ya!
Bella Bacon sent a HUGE disaster 270 off the takeoff of the DFD, huge.
Eileen took it personally with a huge gap to wallride back 2 out.
Bella, Taylor and Eileen were trading places left and right.
Tereza hit the lipslide but needed a bit more to take a top spot.
Taylor, hit the downrail, back swap to regs though looking for the continuing 2.
Bella, came back with a Tokyo drift on the canon into wallride transition, jumped her above Eileen.
Tereza, who crushed in Knuck Huck last night was keeping it kind of mellow.
Bella gave us another huge transfer to the A Frame with a shifty, more in the tank there.
Tereza upped the ante with a lip front 2, but the level is high in this heat.
TBL went for a signature blind up to switch, but had to settle with coming out to forwards.
Bella Bacon & Eileen Gu advance to finals.
Even being a rookie at X Games is a win of it’s own.
Rell sent a huge gap to backslide.
Eleanor hit the DFD as well and did front up to regs on the kink.
Rell hit the jersey barriers at full chat.
After run 2 Olivia and Marion were on top.
Rell upped the jersey barrier hit to front swap, looking like k-fed potential there as well.
Olivia got redemption on the back swap.
Marion decided against the blind 450 and did front up front 2 (Ellen).
It didn’t put her above Olivia though.
Eleanor was the first to hit one of these features switch, switch lip to regs.
Olivia Asselin & Marion Balsamo advance to finals.
Marion also didn’t quite lace run 1, but that’s the beauty of a jam format.
Olivia just about held onto a blind swap front 2 on the jersey barrier.
EIleen hit the picnic table to slide front 270 and just lost a shoe on the landing.
Bella went for broke and threw a 450 on, from that same disaster takeoff.
Marion got a front 2 out of the down rail but she didn’t look locked in.
Olivia laced up a super clean 270 on continuing 2.
Clean as a whistle.
Eileen, looking a bit sore in all honesty, went for a switch 2 but got hung up.
At this point, Olivia had it dialled, super clean back 4 for the culture.
Eileen just about squeaked around a switch 2 cont 2 but it wasn’t clean.
Bella went for the Tokyo drift to wallride again which was lovely although not judged highly.
Marion went for didn’t hold back trying a front swap front 4 on the down rail.
Eileen, a true competitor but clearly carrying some injuries got bodied… again.
Damn Gu, maybe a day off would be good for ya.
Bella, threw a sick blind 450 outta the A Frame.
Honestly, it’s just awesome to see her skiing again, this jumped her into 2nd as well.
Marion couldn’t lace the B2 out of the DFD+donkey to take silver outta Bella’s hands.
Olivia’s victory lap was a super steezy K Fed on the jersey barrier.
