After two days of training on this sick course I ended up with 2 blue feet and heels. I ended up short on a tripple jump. The qualification didn’t go as I wanted. I messed up in the first quali and landed to heavy on my blue heels in the second run what I couldn’t manage so I fell. Non the less I ended up 13th one spot out of the finals. The whole event was amaizing!! We saw some snowscooters flipping and Horgomo’s triple flip Sick! After the Monster party on top of Aspen it was time to head to Holland again.

After the second day of training Bell give’s a recap of the event. Follow the quali’s tomorrow live @ www.espn3.com from 11.30 – 13.00 Colorado time so that’s 19.30 Euro time.
The world championships were held in La Molina Spain. We drove from Holland to Argeles sur mer and than the next day to Barcelona. It was 18 degrees celcius and sunny so we didn’t have the feeling that we were going snowboarding at all! Driving up to La Molina that feeling only got stronger as everything around us stayed green. Alle the slopes were green except the venues of the world championships. Big up for the crew that made the white course in the green feeld.
The training started ok for me but after a couple of runs I started making a lot of mistakes and it wasn’t going the way I wanted The next day I wasn’t planning on doing the same so I got my act together and rode a good first quali run. In my second run I fell but I still ended up top 16 with my first time.
Racing day… I was stoked to ride in the 3rd womens heat of the day. Too bad the girl next to me crashed in the start section and I had to ride around her so I was chasing numbers 1 and 2 the whole course. I tride to pull an all or nothing on the before last jump but it ended up in a noting.
All with all I came in 11th at the world championships which is my best preformance yet at this event! I’m happy and ready to go to the Xgames in Aspen!

After beeing home for 6 hours we flew from Amsterdam up to Denver. We drove to Aspen where we could stay in the limelight hotel thanx to Anneke (Cleve’s mom). Cleve showed us some nice and hidden tracks trough Aspen Highlands and Snowmass. All the shreddin made us very hungry luckely Cleve’s parents were in the kitchen all day preparing a real thanksgiving dinner for us. We got introduced tot sweet potatoes with marsmellows.
The next day we drove to Telluride. We stayed in a sweet hotel and the course looked awesome. Official training went realy well and Cleve and I were ready to race. During the quali it was snowing so it was important to ride a fast first run. Cleve had a couple of mistakes but still got in the top 32. I rode a nice first run, made a big mistake but was 8th after the first run. After the second run 3 people rode faster than Cleve and he ended up 34th witch was a bummer! I ended up 9th and was stoked to ride the finales.
In the finales I had a bad start and I couldn’t make up for it during my run. I was a bit disappointed but ending up 9th in the World Cup was my best achievement yet. I won prize money for the first time with SBX so we headed up to the bar to spend some but not till after the World Cup team event. As I’m the only female Dutch rider I teamed up with Italy. We were a good combination because we made it into the big finals! We didn’t make it on the podium but we raced good and ended up 4th!
Now we’re in Klosters spending X-mass. Merry X-mas to you all!
