With all the local support in Maritzburg for Minnaar, it was refreshing to see local support for the other SA riders. Jonty Neethling had his best WC result to date with a top 30. For his brother Andrew, a podium favorite, it was not to be. With three big mistakes in his run, he had to settle for 14th. At least he has Sea Otter Dual Slalom to look forward to next week. (BTW Ryk Neethling is an Olympic medalist.)
