Heenan missed the individual bronze medal by 4/lOOs of a second and the silver by 1/lOth of a second a blink of an eye!

James Frost posted the 3rd fatest time in his second run and vaulted up the leader board from 13th to 5th place. Ryan Taylor and Cody Malcolm continued CCis domination by taking 9th and lOth.
