Of the three jumps, the best two counted. And because one after the other went down, there was only one successful attempt for many competitors. For example, Peperkamp, who started the final in eleventh position, quietly crept up in the standings.
After two jumps even fifth
After two jumps with a so-called backside 900, she was fifth, although at a great distance from the medal candidates. Although she increased her points total on the last lap with a slightly longer grab, Ge Rong still passed her.
Peperkamp, after Murase the youngest participant in the final, missed the final battle in the slopestyle section earlier this Winter Games. In the nick of time she was one of the best twelve on the big air, with which she had already succeeded in this mission.
“Slopestyle had been a very good learning moment for me, that I have to try a little harder,” said Peperkamp. “I just really make it happen here.”
