Just a few days later we are back on basically the same course. The Speed n Style track with mounds instead of jumps to keep things even faster. Gate drop start area into deep and fast turns with endless possibilities in the rollers Mitch Ropelato was tripling some in practice but that didn’t come out during the race.
The women’s race was very similar to last night’s pump track – coming down to the final run which Caroline Buchanan took out. This time her run wasn’t enough and Jill took the overall score win to claim gold – just one more five-peat to add to her count this year! For the men it was between Tomas Slavik and Bas Van Steenbergen ending in a racer V freerider battle coming down to the wire. Slavik kept with his racing roots to take the win once again.
