Great course, steep run, big jump, tough 360 and long skate. TV cameras everywhere on the course including a boom camera in the 360. Run 1 was going fine until i caught my left arm between the gate poles and thru my line off. Men’s run 2 started at 15:35 and the weather was warm so the afternoon reset course was not holding up well. It was even rough for the top 15 who started first. It turned out to be my best run of all races and with a decent time and the least amount of penalties. it was an awesome way to finish off.
