00:00 And we are heading back up to the top for Estelle Rizzolio, French rider, another French woman on the Freeride World Tour.
00:07 She's a DJ, she's a coder. I don't know if we're going to get to see it, but she custom painted her board.
00:12 And she was so stoked with the way it came out. It's hard to see just by the angle, but oh yeah, there you go.
00:18 Bright pink, she's so stoked on representing her whole community. Estelle Rizzolio is on course.
00:24 Working her way out of start one again. You know, the riders get that option, and so whatever speaks to them, they're going to take first.
00:31 Working her way into this technical section, into the closeout, lining it up, making sure she's getting everything dialed.
00:37 And right off the nose, stomping it, staying in control. A little bit of a control issue coming in, trying to shut out.
00:45 And again, you see that's where we see that crust influencing how the riders are going to have to manage their speed.
00:52 Once you start going too fast, it's hard to shut down.
00:55 Yeah, really hard to slow down, really hard to get direction. And you know, the instinct is to throw the board sideways.
01:00 Sometimes a little bit of patience. There we go now!
01:03 Sick nose grab off the top.
01:06 All right, well Estelle firing things up. She's got a couple big airs. That's what she's become known for in her sophomore year here on the Freeride World Tour.
01:14 Every time we see her strap in, she is sending. And another one, keeping it in the fall line there.
01:19 Balance and on point here for Estelle Rosolio. This is a great run.
01:24 Keep coming down in the bottom. This is the most high pressure situation. You want to finish it off strong, but you're finishing an awesome run.
01:31 You just want to hold it together. Coming into the finish corral, you can see that she's stoked, holding on.
01:38 She did a control issue, but what an awesome run by Estelle. Three huge airs.
01:43 I'm so curious to see how the judges pull this one up with that control issue. But incredible riding.
01:49 All right, Tom, let's take a look back. This first air kicking things off for Estelle.
01:54 It's almost as if she got lost in her spray there.
01:59 And then judges loving the line score. They didn't dock her too hard on fluidity and control.
02:05 Yeah, there might be a little ding, but she went so big.
02:09 You know, I think it may balance itself out there. And the rest of her run was so solid.
02:14 Estelle Rosolio putting a stamp here on the T1 South Face. A really solid run. You can see so full line, so direct.
02:21 And just filled with features. I have a feeling the judges are going to be pretty fired up with that one.
02:26 Yeah, that was an incredible run. And let's see what they get.
02:30 Score coming in at 78 for Rosolio. So Estelle taking over the hot seat, that hot pink board doing its job.
02:38 Here on the kicking horse face. Big hugs there for Marissa as Estelle. You know, every time we saw it last year,
02:46 she would either explode or she'd do super well. But every single time she was just out there sending.
