We thought the Bowl-A-Rama qualifiers were insanely good, but the finals were killer. These girls were in it to win. There was no holding back and the skating was fast and furious. It was one of the best women's contests we have ever seen!
Sabre Norris seemingly came out of nowhere for this contest and put together each of her runs full of back to back tricks, including huge FS airs, andrechts, switch 50/50's and of course the incredible 540 that she threw down with total ease.
Last years Bowl-A-Rama winner, Jordyn Barratt, came out swinging with a mixture of tricks including FS inverts, BS airs, crail slides, a beautiful boneless, gay twists, her signature eggplant and a FS stalefish. She's always fun to watch, and mixes it up every run.
Poppy Starr Olsen, always a crowd favorite, dropped in and executed a perfect run to set the tone. From feeble's, BS airs, Front 5-0's, Rock sliders, inverts, an alley oops with a mute grab and a gay twist, she was all about smooth style and power during her runs. She really has a nice mix of tricks and doesn't fear just going for it!
Hunter Long had some beautiful and stylish tricks in her runs - including an eggplant, inverts, smith grinds and she even went for a 540 straight off on one of her last runs - so ballsy!! We think we will be seeing Hunter on podium more this yaer - she just keeps getting stronger and more stylish all the time.
Newcomer Grace Cochrane had some nice feeble grinds, rocksliders, and a rad decked out rock & roll, she tried a back D that we wished she had made - she was so close! She has only been skating 3 years and is one to watch. We will definitely be seeing more of this rad young girl!
