I had gotten a few new tie-dye shirts specifically to wear on Superstar late season in her honor (since the ones I already owned are older than she is), haven’t had the chance to tell her that though as I haven’t been to K since the Fast Pass implementation. My new ski partner hasn’t been to K in almost a decade though and he won’t stop trying to talk me into going back, so maybe I’ll get the chance next Apr/May/June.

Just qualifiers. All that means is the top 16 of 35 competitors today get a chance to ski in the finals tomorrow.
Those 16 then get weeded down to 6 in the super final

But

You have to qualify first and she's done that.

She was supposed to ski a bit with my grandsons’ ski group. Instead she spent the whole day with them. Met her at pickup (still with them!) She gives back so much to the mountain, impossible not to root for her.

Goes to show, you don't never know
Watch each card you play, and play it slow
Don't you let that deal go down
