Top stuff Jacko. Hopefully you get a good draw and a lil bit of luck on your side.
I'm blown away by the results. The big man Mischo bringin it to the technical stuff! He's out for revenge this year. Looks like he wants a big No.1 on his bibs for next year.

Great work Jacko. Up there in second at one stage.Sounds like there was a breeze that droped off in the arvo so the later bracket went better. Go 4 podium - shit yeah.

Nice work Jacko! All that training paying off. Seems like quite a few of the Loaded crew are doing well too.

Thought I'd play with the numbers a little. In slalom I'm usually about 10% slower than Jackson's time. If he does a course in 20s I'll do it in about 22s.

At Peyragudes Jacko was 1.8% slower than the No. 1, Mischo. If it was a 20 s course the difference would be 0.36 s. In my experience that level of difference is just bordering on being significant - it might mean a real difference in skill, or it might just be natural variation.

Why isn't this shit on TV? I wanna watch. Even non-skaters would watch this stuff..
