00:12Ben
00:13Richards getting ready to do it. We've already seen one Kiwi with an electric run today. Ben
00:18Richards on course now, pushing out of start number three. The smoothest rider on the tour,
00:24where it rarely does a leg or an arm go slightly out of place as Ben lines up this first
00:31huge 360
00:32perfectly stomped as if he was just, you know, booping around. And getting a 360 off the wind lip
00:39above all that exposure straight into another air. Ben Richards not even hesitating a bit as he comes
00:46into this lower air full speed. He's got his skis. He's all good. Ben Richards, he is the goat for
00:54a
00:54reason as he's got this long transfer that we saw Hitzig take, executing to perfection.
01:01Timo Rolschauvin on the bottom corner of your screen, watching on from the hot seat. His
01:07adrenaline's got to be spiking almost as high as Ben's is right now. Yeah. You know, Ben makes
01:12everything look so easy, but ladies and gentlemen, there is nothing easy about skiing down the back
01:20at all. Big hugs down.
01:29A great run from the Kiwi. Beautiful. We see what this hover airline tracker he moved with intention,
01:38within purpose, down the venue, going back up. Let's check out the replay starting off,

01:50And that wind lip that we saw other people just absorb. Ben going left three, right into another
01:56rock air, and then flying off this cliff. Maximum velocity. Look at the judges' bars. Just maxed
02:04absolutely out to their limit, taking this one. And we saw Max Hitzig with a pretty big bobble
02:09on this feature. No issue for Ben Richards as he is back to his, I mean, the, the, just perfection
02:18of that run. It cannot be overstated. So the score already dropping. The judges having their say,
02:2596 points for Ben Richards as he moves into the hot seat. And the crowd absolutely frothing.
