Transcript
00:00 Again, Scott Rider here riding out of Poland,
00:03 a former Polish slope style champ, Zuza Witek.
00:06 Zuzana, 31 years old.
00:08 She's back on the Freeride World Tour representing Poland
00:11 and she's so fired up.
00:13 Moved to Switzerland five years ago
00:15 to ignite a Freeride career
00:16 and I'd say it's been meteoric,
00:19 her rise up the ranks through this whole thing.
00:21 - Safe to say that Freeride career has been pretty lit.
00:25 She has got a bit of a local advantage here,
00:27 dropping in from start one.
00:28 Also taking that spicy approach like Hedwig Wessel.
00:32 Looking smooth, strong and solid.
00:35 - I love that start, getting the judges attention
00:37 straight out of the gate and putting them on notice
00:41 that you are not here to mess around.
00:43 So Zuza Witek over some big exposure right now.
00:45 Is she gonna bite off this big dog?
00:47 She is and stomping clean, controlling speed,
00:50 flying off the next one.
00:52 Zuzana Witek with a hot start to her run.
00:54 - She is flying out there
00:56 and lining up another huge air.
00:58 Four point landing, looking super strong
01:02 coming out of there.
01:03 - Yeah, taking that one cross court,
01:05 lining up the angles, it's so important.
01:07 This isn't one smooth face.
01:09 There's a lot of different features
01:11 and a lot of different aspects
01:12 where things are slightly changed angles.
01:14 So we're seeing Zuza now come into the same section.
01:17 We saw Manon and clearing Manon's bomb hole,
01:20 roasting off that air.
01:23 A huge, huge launch from the Polish rider
01:27 as she's gonna catch the bottom section of this wind lip.
01:30 She had so much pace coming out of there.
01:32 Zuzana Witek with a big statement here in Ski Women.
01:36 - That run was an absolute heater.
01:39 What a return to the tour.
01:41 (crowd cheering)
01:43 - Oh, and Zuza is fired up on that.
01:46 She's all smiles.
01:47 Big hugs for Manon, potentially nervous moments for Manon
01:51 as we just saw another fantastic run on that section.
01:54 I love the way she started that.
01:56 - Yeah, there was so much fluidity between each feature.
02:00 No hesitation.
02:01 Let's check out the start there.
02:03 Just getting a little air under the belt to kick things off
02:06 and then just charging into these airs.
02:09 Beautiful control after landing
02:13 and going long on every jump.
02:16 - Yeah, you could see on at least two of them,
02:18 she was able to go right over Manon's bomb hole.
02:22 And so you can see just right there, the fluidity is high.
02:26 The line score is gonna be absolutely jacked.
02:29 An incredible run for the Scott rider there
02:31 as the judges having their say.
02:33 A 97.67.
02:36 That is an unbelievable score for the Polish rider.
02:39 You can see it in her face.
02:41 She is blown away.
02:42 So happy and well deserved for Zuza.
02:45 That was again, pure free ride on the Bech de Ross.
02:50 The judges know what they wanna see and that was it.
