Men's second session of round one. The top two will advance to the quarterfinals. This suitcase. All right. To Austin Sweet. Oh my gosh. Beautiful combination back to back there. Huge. Oh my gosh. Into that pocket was outrageous. Floats through that. Another perfect transition. Back three. OK. Dustin Craver knows this hill like no one else. I don't even think he knows what a safety run is. This is where you want to see him heading. Oh, oh. No way. Oh my God. Hold on. Yes. The crowd. So loud. Rode away from that. Oh my God. No one else can ride switching powder like Nils Minnick. There we go. What? Front nine. Up top. From Nils Minnick. Congratulations to Nils Minnick and Dustin Craver. They will go straight through to the quarterfinals. Men's round two, session one. First hit. Nice. There you go. Big backy. There you go. Nice backy. Getting inverted. Switch backside 180. There you go. Oh. A lot going on there. Kind of a wild ride, Stale.

Look at that. She's going for it. Oh. Alayna Hite dropping next. Here we go. Come on, Alayna. Oh. Yes, girl. Wow. Put yourself in a scary spot. This is how you're going to get these scores. Let's go. So Alayna Hite will move on to the semifinal. Men's second round. Here we go. Jada Ellison on course. When they choose. Yes. Count it. For his second run, goes for Brooks. Time for that Hail Mary third round. OK. Travis Rice, the most dangerous competitor at Natural Selection. Oh, so much sweat coming out of that. And so well controlled. Travis Rice, but you were back to back. Getting it into the quarterfinals. Five women, one spot left in the semifinals. Mary Rand. Oh. A needle between those two pillows. Spencer O'Brien.

So three rounds, quarterfinals, semis, and final. And they get two runs each. Highest score goes through. So this is the brick. I miss up. This is a very technical double. Boom. Oh. Oh, he's off. Boom. He made it through that. Oh. Giant, bro. Oh my god. Dropping in switch. Oh. Yes. OK. That's why they built that. Yes. Oh. Take a bow. That was exceptional. That one feels wide open still. That is so far within Torquia's reach. Is that a 50-foot brick or a 10-foot brick? Go. The side of brick. Yeah, Craven. Nice. Oh. Clean as a whistle. That's exactly what I was thinking right there. Stalling. Molly out onto that mushroom. Wow. Blake Moller straight into the semis. That cat 5 was so nice. Switchback 7 to start. Big, big move up top. Oh, beautiful. And he holds on to it. No hesitation. Gigi Ruff who advances. He will face Blake Moller in the semifinals. Oh. Chicane. Nice. Oh. Torquia. Second run for Torquia. It is not enough to overhaul that first-run score of Jared Elston. Oh. Double. It's clean. Opening up a new area. Factory nose tap. Stale Sandbeck, who takes the win and will advance to the semifinals. Women's semifinals. Move on. Thank you. She's dropping it regular. There we go. Going back three. Oh, sick. And she nails it. It wasn't technically a fall. No. Stop. There we go. Oh. Hey. Spencer O'Brien will be moving on to the finals. Landing that big backflip. There's not a lot of fear that she won't act on. Take a hit. Nice. Wow. Oh. Stomped it. That was fantastic. Very flowy. This is the similar Stale line. Look at that. Nice. Oh. Look at that. Oh. Massive. There we go. Five points. Gigantic transfer.

Switch backside. Five. And he came off the side of that here. Look how fast he is coming out of this. Blake Moller takes it in the first of our semifinals. Nestale again. No stranger to competition. What? OK. Front five off the side of that diving board. That was sick. Oh, my gosh. And all right. It's a cap five. And there it is. The method. Oh. So the triple. There was a tiny bit of repetition down there. Jared dropping in. Here we go. Back seven. I believe that was seven. Put it down. How did he get purchase on that? Wow. A lot of elevation to drop now. There we go. OK. He's going to make it through. And he pulls it. Holy smokes. Nestale Sandek. It's time he makes finals. And it is finals time. Spencer O'Brien versus Elena Haidt. Oh, my gosh.
