Emilie Siegenthaler had another solid run into her favorite 9th place, which put her into 13th overall position.

Nick Beer, Markus Pekoll and Floriane Pugin ended up on the podium in Hafjell, Norway.
The riders were having lots of fun on a track with good flow after the super technical tracks of the last two weeks.
The qualifier on friday was held in pouring rain, but the finals luckily in the sun.
Floriane Pugin won the silver medal only just 0.36 seconds behind her french compatriot Miriam Nicole. Emilie Siegenthaler came in fourth.
Nick Beer also won the silver medal, behind the surprisingly fast Robin Wallner from Sweden. Nick is happy getting a smooth run down after a few difficult races.
Following up his success in Val di Sole, Markus Pekoll came in third with a great run!
Get an impression of the numerous high class mountain bike tricks like Bienvenido Alba’s front flip from the starting tower step down, as well as Sam Pilgrim’s 360 x-ups and backflip nohanders.

Congratulation!
Read some quotes:
Cam McCaul:
“It was great to be back at the Claymore challenge after winning in ’08 and being out last year due to an injury. My Trek Team-mate Brandon Semenuk won last year, and I knew I’d have to up my game if I wanted to try to win again. I qualified first and was sitting in 1st after the first final runs, but I knew Brandon had some stuff up his sleeve for his second run. He pulled out a banger run and bested me by .25 points. I let it all hang out in my 2nd run, but crashed on the last jump. At the end of the day, Trek snagged 1st and 2nd so we’re stoked!”
Aaron Chase:
“I can’t say it enough…those guys are doing ALL the right things. I got up there to train about a week early and helped the team there finish filling their brand new foam pit! They opened the HTC (Highland Training Center) and it is dope! It was sweet to be able to ride a little fresh foam and get ready for the event. The event was broadcast LIVE on 6 different websites and nearly 50k people watched it LIVE! Amazing stuff. I did a bunch of Go Pro POV footage for the Pre Game show as well as made a deal with PinkBike to blog from the event. Check out all the links…PinkBike is re-playing the entire webcast for the next week. So sick! oh- and by the way I finished 6th. I was stoked!
