Unbeatable today was four-time LAAX winner Jamie Anderson. The experienced and seasoned US-American showed her class with two very rock solid runs. She was already in the lead after the first run, but rather than resting on her laurels, she instead improved her score in the second run. Among others, Jamie showed a Cab Double Underflip 900 Weddle and Frontside 720 Weddle at the kickers. Watch Jamie’s second run here. Zoi Synnott Sadowski‘s (NZL) performance stood out with inimitable style, which got her into second place, followed by Japanese Kokomo Murase coming in third.

For the men, Swiss Mortiz Boll was already in the lead after the first run. None of his competitors could challenge him and as it stands, Moritz is the lucky winner of today’s semi-finals. Behind him in second place was his compatriotNicolas Huber. Germany’s Leon Vockensperger surprised in third place. Here you can watch Moritz’s first run.
