00:00 - To remember Max Hitzig off the George Rodney
00:02 Yusasaki Pyramid, throwing down one of the biggest
00:05 backflips we've ever seen landed on the tour.
00:08 He has got the skiing skills, the freestyle skills,
00:12 and the just absolute reckless bravery.
00:15 It's the perfect combination, he's so strong.
00:18 So Max Hitzig wearing that fire bib,
00:20 showing he is the leader on the tour on course now.
00:23 - Dropping in out of start one.
00:25 A lot of the riders coming out of start B
00:27 making quick work of the top.
00:28 Technical riding, coming off this tricky section,
00:32 making it look like nothing through those rocks,
00:34 just lily padding, and a huge three off the shoulder
00:39 and stomping it.
00:40 Max Hitzig showing his strength again in kicking horse.
00:45 Look at how solid of a rider he is.
00:47 It's like it's absolutely nothing.
00:49 Quick work through the bottom, straight lining out,
00:51 getting out of the trees.
00:53 What a performance from the German Max Hitzig.
00:57 (crowd cheering)
01:00 Coming back into the finish, Max Hitzig.
01:04 Kicking horse seems to be his mountain as well as Verbier.
01:07 This is an incredible showing from him.
01:09 We saw Jackson Bathgate hit that cliff.
01:16 Look at the lily pad coming through that top section,
01:19 making quick work of it, avoiding rocks,
01:21 and this, so much trust in the snow pack
01:24 and taking it to his feet.
01:26 No control issues and a huge, huge 360
01:31 like it was nothing on the landing.
01:34 - Well, that was an incredible run from Max Hitzig.
01:37 As we've come to expect,
01:39 it honestly shouldn't be a surprise anymore
01:41 when we see Hitzig deliver a performance like that.
01:44 Top to bottom, extremely technical,
01:45 huge airs with the tricks.
01:47 He's got it all.
01:48 And you look at that line tracker, so fall line, so direct.
01:52 Now the judges have got their work cut out for them.
01:54 Hitzig, he's stoked.
01:56 - Yeah.
01:57 - Well, already the judges have had their say
02:01 and that is rocketing up to a 94.
02:03 Incredible score with this many riders left to go.
02:08 Max Hitzig once again delivering an electrifying performance
02:12 here on the Freeride World Tour.
