Emily Gilruth was next on course and is showing as eliminated so it must have been a nasty fall :(

I wonder why the Mims were chosen over a frangible, quicker to replace? Bit concerning how much they have been bashed and nothing giving.

There is a technical reason about which is best in which scenario but for the life of me I can't remember!

How many refusals at the staircase? In slow motion I'd say it was two.

I'd have said two - they're being generous if they only give him one.

Going back to Micheal Jung, it just shows you need to ride for the time.

That bank has caught a few out, it didn't look that much of a problem when I walked the course.

But just before he went down, he lifted his feet as though he was going to go down, but didn't - which I would class as the second.

But a stop at a drop is only if step back, you can move sideways. He lifted feet could be counted as slight hesitation but not a stop. He could have stood still for 5-10sec and then gone down and wouldn't have been 20pen if no step back
