Girls in the competition: not many but very<br />
good ones<br />
February 11th was the official first contest day with semi-final<br />
heats scheduled. The wind started picking up first thing<br />
in the morning and by 12pm the contest was on! We started<br />
the women's heat with all 6 riders: Annelous Lammerts,<br />
Victoria Soloveykina, Isabel Von Zastrow, Manuela Jungo,<br />
Colleen Carroll and yours truly.<br />
The level of the ladies has really stepped up this year<br />
and every single one of the girls was charging. We cycled<br />
through each feature (Air Asia Roof Top Rail, North Fun Box,<br />
and the Solaire Kicker). Annelous Lammerts really stepped<br />
it up by landing the first Double Pass, a toe-side Backside<br />
540, to ever be done by a woman off of a static feature in a<br />
competition. The crowd went nuts!
