The course that was set was fairly open with one tricky maneuver from gate 10-13 through the main drop but other then that it was fairly flat and the times were blazing fast for 20 gates.
With a good Qualification run day under my belt, I am looking forward to a more challenging course for the Semi-Finals.
I was consistent on both runs. I laid down a 115.16 on the first and a 115.76.
At the end of the run I knew I had not improved and that it was going to be a fairly equal time. That doesn't bother me though. Sometimes having two consistent runs can be the safest way to finish a race.
The goal for today was to keep my negative emotion's out of the question and only focus on what went well and how I can make the small mistakes better.
As Michael T-Pec's Tayler said today, "When you play with fire your going to get burned", after his second run. Beforehand he said, "Well, I'm just going to go for it. I'll either get a 95 and beat Michal Smolen, or I'll get a 195."
Those are truly wise words from truly, a wise paddler.
It turned out to be a day full of smiles and good paddling.
I am unsure of the final results for today but I will post those later tonight hopefully.
Take care everyone!
Make sure you have your shirts ready to go for tomorrow as well!!!
