Describe the feeling you get as your turn in for the ramp at a night event on your first jump?
Freddy Krueger: Typically, there is a lot of anxiety. Even though you’ve jumped on the site and qualified for the finals, you really have to settle in and trust your timing. Some guys try to ease into their set and feel things out on that first jump, but when it’s the finals you just have to trust your earlier rounds of jumping and go for it. I would rather have a great cut and miss my lift than get my lift but be too early. I need that good cut to be competitive and go for the win.
