Summary

Ahead of tomorrow's post-race show, we’ve got chats with your Junior Women’s champ, Jenna Hastings, Jackson Goldstone, your junior men’s champ Jordan Williams, the comeback queen, Cami Balanche, your elite women’s champ Vali Hoell, stand out 6th place guys Oli Zwar and the always impressive Troy Brosnan.
