00:00Holding the French flags on his shoulders from the Toit valet, not this valet
00:05But he is a local and we are gonna see the fans going nuts Enzo Nilo
00:10He's gonna be dropping in looking to avoid the free ride fiasco that we saw some of the other riders getting themselves into
00:17Can he do it? This guy wants to win. He was a rookie. He got bounced off the tour
00:22He's back with a solid result under his belt
00:25He's got some good friends on the tour one of them being Victor de la Rue the current World Tour champion and
00:31World Tour leader Enzo would like nothing more than to step a step higher than his good buddy
00:37And here he is dropping to this face from start three
00:41Making his way through this top section the crowd next to us is almost deafening
00:47Giving a little hello to his buddies. I
00:51I
00:53Can hear chainsaws in the background Enzo Nilo
00:57Chucking a 360 but somehow coming out of that on his feet
01:01He had a very different takeoff approach than we saw the other riders big backflip for Enzo
01:08French crowd is going bananas now Enzo Nilo picking up a whole head of steam going so fast into the lower section of this
01:15Lack nor face such strong riding. He is on fire with the double no problem perfect stop
01:23And he is not done yet getting lost in his slough cloud still more features stacked up below Enzo Nilo
01:31He's doing it for the home crowd
01:33Kind of a butter back three there
01:36catching the side of that feature
01:39He's got about 300 loud fans waiting for him to get down to this bottom section as he makes his way to the finish
01:47You know Enzo in the last year was given a wild card a week before his first season
01:52And so you can tell this year. He's had a whole season to prep. He's had a whole season to prepare
01:57He's riding with his buddies that he's competing against and they're really like
02:01Fueling off of each other that competitive mindset just pushes one another to keep going a little bit higher
02:07Yeah, that was a huge run from the Frenchman riding as we said out of the 12 la so he is about as local as it gets
02:15Here in France and the fans loving it. He's having a blast
02:19You can see we've got the cold the ski from say helping the riders get across the flat. Look at this back three
02:25He looked so out of sorts and then brings it around
02:28Perfectly to land in the powder and then this
02:33Big
02:35Someone wants to go to the moon today
02:37Perfect control. He just drops on to that heel side edge slows himself down and gets ready for this double. Yeah
02:44Burying himself in the snow on the takeoff which provides a little bit of deceleration
02:49So you don't go too fast this lack no arc providing or proving a little bit too fast
02:55This lack no arc providing or proving a little bit tricky in the paneling of the face where it goes from steep to flat to
03:02Steep to flat so Enzo Nilo
03:05Bringing it for the home crowd here the freeride world tour in the Val Thorens and he is fired up
03:11I
03:28Think he hit a rock
03:31Hit a rock on the approach to the 360 so cat-like reflexes to hold on to that. It looked like he was
03:38Headed for disaster, but no chance Enzo Nilo the score coming up
03:4490.67 for Enzo Nilo
03:51Frenchman in the hot seat
