00:00As a threat, I absolutely love watching Ben ski

00:04He's just inspiring the man's coaching all summer at treble cone free ride

00:10alongside

00:11Family he getting the little I don't even know what that tricks called little bright iron cross. Okay

00:17Just a little playful on the ridge

00:19Like we said, this is where the athletes can kind of feel it out get themselves stoked before really hitting the meat

00:24But he's going pretty far down to the riders right side

00:27See where he decides to bite off a nub of this thing

00:31Looks like he's gonna go all the way down to that buttress. Yeah, there was no section

00:38He's moving in we've seen his countrymen Craig Murray make very good use of this section popping a 360

00:45Classic totally in control flying side hill. This looks very familiar

00:50front flip for Ben Richards

00:53Richards

00:55Amazing that was

00:58Unbelievable Ben Richards, you know, he skied his run in France and a lot of people were like, oh

01:03Why didn't that score higher and he was like I skied way too mellow of a line

01:07Well Ben Richards if nothing listened, yeah

01:11Listen, and there was nothing mellow about that

01:15Rageous run. Yeah

01:17Greasy solid style though the whole time like making it look easy, which sometimes is bad

01:23But I mean the huge front flip you cannot deny that

01:26Having that full control commitment into that second kind of cross-court air with that three on top

01:32I mean that was a pretty good bag of tricks. He just tossed out

01:47Well a bell loved it as we look back here at the replay Ben Richards kicking things off with that silky smooth 360

01:54ripping that three and then right into that transfer air with a little shifty poke and

01:59Big front flip into that pow landing just totally stomps it front flips are so committing so blind

02:06and it's at speed I

02:09Love this turn the drone kind of losing sight of him there and then just leading with his chin. Yes. I

02:16Don't know why front flips just stoked me out. I

02:19Love how he drips that at

02:22Three off the top. Yeah and styling out that second one

02:25It's not easy to make that turn as we've seen other riders unable to do it in the past and then the big front flip

02:33So Ben Richards with a totally different approach to the face to a bell

02:37You know both of those riders making the most of every single feature that they had in their path

02:43This is the judges nightmare kind of because two amazing very different runs and we'll see what they do with it

02:49Well, they have had a think the score going up up up 87

02:556-7 so sliding it just behind the bell, but nonetheless
