Warner Nickerson won. This event is well-worth getting up early to watch.

Recently back from Europe, Warner dug his ski out of storage and had only 2 short practice runs a day or two before the race. His dad noted that a fast boat helped. I think fast boat or not; skiing that distance was a feat.
We did got to watch the start promptly at 7 am.

Agreed. I've fallen that fast on a steep snow covered slope and came out fine.(no trees). I've also fallen barefooting on water at 40 and got pummeled.
