I wouldn't necessarily say it.

that the tactic is using it to an advantage in the sense that you want to be jet lagged for your competition.

One thing I did do in 2018 was our events were so late at night.

I thought, why adjust all the way over to where we are?

You get home from your event, I wouldn't hop into bed and go to sleep and get an early start the next morning.

Typically, I would think of the changes I have to make on the hill to make my jump better.

to have a further jump, a jump that's more technically correct.

Yeah, pretty much.

You're just going over in your head again and again, like this is what you need to do.

Not often does that happen, but I do remember one time that was ski flying.

So ski flying jumps are twice the size of the Olympic jumps.

And typically with a good jump there, you're in the air for about 10 seconds.

Dang.

So that's a lot of time to be going through your head.
