Round 9 has just been completed. Hibaldstow team Kaizen scored an obvious 16, but were bust down to 15 because of camera angle shortly after launch. They are over at the judges room now to find out why the infringement has been given.
Army Nemesis looked to be doing great on their jump but then had a major mental block at the beginning of a Block 17 second time round. That cost them dearly and they scored 10. Satori scored a top scoring 17 on the round with SonicNutz taking a solid 16. The teams have all done a quick dirt dive and are now kitting up for the final round 10. Good luck to all.
On a quick note, Satori Red team yesterday took a fantastic Silver medal position. They did so with an unusual method. During final few rounds, the scores between 5 teams were all within a few points of each other. They decided for their final round to dial their speed back a touch rather than take the extra risk and speed it up. That worked in their favour and they got the Silver with a 12.5 average. The standard of teams in AA this year was much higher than in 2010. We think 5th place this year would have outscored last years Gold.
