Only 30 points short of 13k! Incredible

My man Jake!  Way to go!  I knew you’d do it. Finally nailed the 7 at the right time. 
 
Anybody got video?

[Horton]

@BKistler

The rule is something like the official video is the property of iwwf. that doesn't mean somebody might not leak it, but the Ablesons may request that it not be distributed publicly until it has been reviewed by the world record committee.

there were some kerfuffels in years past 🤷‍♂️

@Horton Hard to keep video under wraps if it happens to be a televised tournament. 

I know tv is not the official video, still…

Truly unbelievable skiing. And that O after W7F is very fast… it'll all be in time very soon.

Wow! Congratulations Jake.

A thing of beauty.

Like his Arizona neighbor, Erica Lang, I’d say Jake’s gymnastics background is a real bonus!

Also, not sure if this has been talked about, but in the 2nd round Jr of MQS1 Jake went for a monster run that didn't pan out. He substituted SLBB with SL7B (credit) and TWF with TWLF (fall). TWLF + W7F = 1180. I'll let you do the fun sum.

 

[Horton]

I can not get past TWLF being worth only 380. Will someone please fix the trick points?

 

WL7F = 700

W7F = 800
