Following a few spills, minor wind delays and big tricks it was Brita Sigourney that qualified first for finals with the top score from semis. Sigourney’s run consisted of an alley-oop 180, left 900, alley-oop 540, left 540, right 540 and a left 720.

“It feels so great to win today. I went way past my expectations. This is my first comp coming back off a knee injury and I am just so pumped to be here again. The new one-stop format adds a lot more pressure but it is really fun.”

Rounding off the top three from semis was Maddie Bowman qualifying second and Roz Groenewould qualifying third.
