ahead of his second run, White spoke about the pressure to perform well. He was asked whether the pressure was a little bit different going into his final run., it doesn't get any bigger. Everything was clicking and I think I just took that little lax approach to that last hit and next thing I knew I was sliding on my back thinking what happened.
"The way they have been running today my next run would be an hour from then so I had a lot of time to kill and a lot of thoughts running through my head and a lot of pressure. "I am so happy that I put that last run down, I am feeling incredible and you have got to fight for it if you want to get into the finals and I did."
