Just got a call from Brad Jackman in Antrim using Hollien's phone.
The big news on Friday is Richie Carrasco just ran a 100-cone CLEAN RUN at 21.179 seconds.
That's clean
Around 30 skaters are taking a run at the 100-cone course but so far NO ONE is close to Richie's time. The hill is fast and Pappas set a straight course that accordians from 5.5 to 7 and back to 5.5 feet at the end.
So far only Richie and Lynn Kramer have run clean.

The important thing to keep in mind with Richie's time is he was slaloming FIVE CONES PER SECOND.
Everyone needs to go out, set up a timer on a very steep hill and charge as fast as possible into JUST FIVE CONES. Then see the elapsed time.
Five cones at 6-foot spacing is 24 feet (you know, four spaces) per second.
Try it. And then repeat it 19 more times.
