With a spot on the Chopperoos team on the line and all 12 athletes wanting the shot at individual gold in Prague our titans put on a show for the huge crowd. Brayden Meyer (VIC) came flying out of the blocks to set two new Australian records in round 1 and take maximum 36 points on offer for the Underhand Chop, Stocksaw & Standing Block. Meyer stood 8 points clear of reigning world Champion Laurence O’Toole (VIC) and 9 points clear of Mitch Argent (QLD) who was clearly making use of home ground advantage.
In round 2 we lost 4 athletes thanks to the new knock-out format, the points also double per placing meaning a mistake now could make or break your day. O’Toole looked to all but end his chances of regaining his title with a surprising last place in the Single Buck and Meyer let the lead slip to just 2 points placing second last after a nervy run. Brad De Losa (NSW) started to make his charge for the title with a new Australian record and Glen Gillam was just 0.04 seconds behind him to tie in 2nd place on 38 points with Mitch Argent. Normal service was resumed for Meyer in the Spring Board setting his third Australian record for the day taking a massive 3.37 seconds off his own previous record, O’Toole looked to bounce back too finishing just 0.7 seconds off Meyer to move into 3rd place tied with De Losa who finished a disappointing 5th for the discipline. Queenslander Argent pulled away from the pair to sit second, just 6 points off Meyer in first on 56 points with only the Hotsaw to go.
For the Hotsaw, only the top 6 placed athletes took to the stage and the first four ahteltes in Head (6.03), De Losa (6.10) and Gillam (6.93) all set times lightening fast times. O’Toole made a late bid for the title with a new national record of 5.91 secs, but a DQ for Argents meant Brayden Meyer only needed 7 points for victory, or 6 points to tie and go to count back of overall times. With the luxury of 19.5 seconds up his sleeve thanks to 3 new national records under his belt, Meyer knew 3 cookies on the ground at a leisurely pace would give him victory.
In what was probably the slowest 7.52 seconds of his life, he did it and the 24 year old from Broadford, Victoria won the Australian Championship for the second time in his career.
Final Standings: 1st Brayden Meyer, 2nd Laurence O’Toole, 3rd Brad De Losa, 4th Glen Gillam, 5th Mitch Argent, 6th Jamie Head.
