A young Canadian who had her way with the Challengers last year, we'll catch up with Erin Sauvé.
00:05
Yeah, I'm excited to...
00:06
Coming to Canada feels a lot more familiar and I've skied a kicking horse before
00:13
and I'm pretty excited to be back on home turf with snow that feels comfortable and like home.
00:20
And I'm also super excited to have some friends and family here and supporting me
00:25
and yeah, just feeling a lot more at home.
00:28
My strategy to pass the cut, well, number one is stay on my feet, that's a big one,
00:34
and just pick lines that I feel comfortable with and that I'm excited to ride.
00:40
All right, Erin Sauvé, this is her home event. She's from just around the corner in Rosslyn.
00:46
She's the snow school director at Red Mountain.
00:48
Last year, she absolutely crushed the Challenger Series, taking first, first, and first.
00:53
And she had a bit of a rough one in Verbier,
00:57
just kind of figuring it out. It was her first time doing visual inspection,
01:00
which is definitely a huge thing to do on the Vecte Ross.
01:02
But Erin Sauvé now, the Canadian rider, is on the face.
01:06
I'm excited to see what she comes up with here.
01:08
You know, all the qualifier riders have ridden this venue,
01:11
coming out of start one onto the bench again, and it offers so many good options.
01:16
Let's see what she lines up here.
01:18
It looks like she's coming into a bit of a double right off the top,
01:21
taking the same air as Tiffany and stomping it,
01:25
staying in control, shutting down.
01:27
That's huge. So you can line everything up coming to the next feature.
01:31
Oh, yeah, Erin with a strong start there.
01:33
Similar approach to what we saw from Estelle, but actually airing onto the platform.
01:38
Now she's heading way, way out to the riders, right?
01:41
These kinds of things, they're not going to hurt fluidity as long as you're moving towards
01:45
something. Now Erin gathering a handful of speed through the powder.
01:48
Working her way down into the tree section.
01:51
Now let's see what she has lined up.
01:52
There's a bunch of different goalies with feature options, milking that snow,
01:57
getting the snow up, enjoying the powder a little bit.
02:00
Let's see what she has here down at the bottom.
02:03
I think that shows some some real savvy there from Erin Sovey popping right off the nose of that one.
02:10
And you can see she's directing herself to where there aren't tracks for these for these riders.
02:15
The snow's not that deep, but if it's not chopped up,
02:18
then you still have an opportunity to throw some spray and control your speed.
02:22
So savvy riding from Sovey, Savvy Sovey,
02:25
wrapping up her run here as she finished out strong showing for the Canadian rider.
02:30
Putting one down on Canadian soil for the Canadian.
02:34
I love to see it.
02:35
Let's see what the judges think and if it will be enough to knock out
02:38
that commanding score that Tiffany just put down.
02:41
Yeah, absolutely.
02:42
All right, we can take a look back here.
02:44
I really liked Erin's approach to that first feature dropping off and then sending right
02:48
off the nose as we see the judging criteria control way up, fluidity and the line.
02:53
Yeah, you may be right.
02:54
Estelle may have had a few more features stacked in there and some of them were really big,
02:58
but nonetheless a solid run and I really like this final hit from Erin.
03:01
And it was such a clean run too.
03:04
No issues, no hands down.
03:06
I'd love to see that staying in control in tough conditions is extremely challenging
03:11
and that's why they're the best of the best.
03:13
That's right.
03:13
So everyone at home, love you Rosslyn.
03:18
All right, well shout out to the homies there back in Rosslyn.
03:20
It was a nice quick commute for Erin Sauvé to get up here to golden as the score coming at 71.67.
03:27
So Erin putting herself into second.
03:30
As you said, Tom, that line of Estelle Rosolio standing up to a solid challenge.
