01:14the gully so Holden kind of blending two of the lines together a little bit of a

01:20perfect mix here going freestyle at the top and then getting into this big

01:25mountain section we've seen in the line scores previously the judges like this

01:29section because it's so committed and Holden going right off the nose using

01:33the heelside edge and staying up so really really strong there for Holden

01:38using all of the strength that he has in his body to hold that move and

01:43continuing down plenty more action to go here for Holden Samuels he's got the

01:47opportunity with these bushes and trees to make some extra errors out of this

01:52section he's got a proof strong riding and he's making huge turns adding in a

01:58little bit of extra flair into his run yeah finding more features in this

02:02bottom part that we've seen some riders leaving some features on the table so

02:06Holden Samuels not slowing down this is really showing the technique that this

02:11man possesses on his board as he's got another one here floating another back

02:16three and perfect very similar on that one to Michael Monn but a really

02:21different middle section up high so Holden Samuels really bringing the

02:25thunder here in the snowboard men this category delivering for us today on the

02:29Vilti loader as expected these are some of the strongest snowboard freeriders on

02:33the planet and the conditions are tough but they're making it look easy they're

02:37making it look easy really creative he kind of took the best of each third

02:41section of this venue and found a way to link them all together let's watch what

02:50he did here again full commitment huge air to start his run off again going far

02:56on the lookers right but then able to move himself with this massive transfer

03:00back onto the left side of the venue yeah landing that one perfectly not even

03:05a hint of a bobble back three over the bush we saw Michael Monn's board

03:09actually clip that one while he was in the air and then taking this one a bit

03:13more out to the right where the landings a bit cleaner you could see the body

03:17compressing there Holden leaning on his strength to get him out of that one

03:21yeah these athletes take their physical preparation so seriously and it's for

03:26moments like this when you need to just hold on stay on your feet yeah finding

03:30more features in this lower zone that other riders have struggled to even just

03:35to get down so Holden Samuels adding air and style there with the grab and

03:39then another transfer another lofty back three clean landing pressing the tail of

03:44the board in and then just releasing the fall line you can see the Mahmood line
