| "I have to say the competition has been incredible against Hayden and the others, this is one of the best wins, it is 1 hour from my house! So rough on the last stage, so many rocks! It's a great feeling to be here with my family and my best friend Reiersen winning the Juniors. It's gonna be a party tonight!" | ||||||
