225

257.5 - easy opener, put me in first
275 - easy 2nd, put me in first
282.5 - called 287.5 initially, guy pulling before me reduced his 3rd by 5kg, so I did the same, hoping that there was 0 chance for a miss and that the other guy in contention for 1st was out of reach. Was a good call, might have been good for 290.

9/9, 27 white lights.



Feed was messed up the whole time, and they didn't have the correct platforms at points.
