Today was a really good day for me. I had an awesome first jump and was third after the first round. On the second I got a little nervous and ended up eighth but I'm super happy. I have changed some things in my technique this past week and it's made a world of a difference. I am more confident and stable with everything. Today was a really fair competition and I had a great time competing.
