  BIOGRAPHY
 

After a whole summer of hard training it finally paid off. At Norge's fall tournament I was jumping mediocre but something clicked and I was jumping how I was previously during the winter. I got 1st place with jumps of 65, and 63.5 meters. I also qualified for my first longest standing, in which I went 69 meters. That was pretty sweet!
