--- How was the tournament?
Rina: It was a fun tournament with a homely atmosphere.I was happy to be second in slopestyle and win the big air.My goal was at least the podium, so I challenged with a strong desire to win.It is impressive that the item was big and the course was difficult unlike Japan.
