Peperkamp was pleasantly surprised with her sixth place. “What do you think?”, the 17-year-old snowboarder told the ANP after her three final runs in Beijing. “Eleventh or tenth would have been possible, but sixth?” Peperkamp came out with a total score of 141.75 points, considerably higher than the day before in the semi-final. “My training went very well today. When I had to do it today, I did better. After the second run I was even fifth. Really bizarre.”
