Katie Mayfield: She Defied Wipeout
It was episode nine- The unique episode of season one. It was actually the first episode filmed, but it was pushed to the ninth episode aired. And this is where we saw the first ever perfect run. Katie Mayfield snuck by the sucker punch and hopped over those big balls and scored an almost unheard of time of 101.3 seconds. However even with that time, she only got second place on the qualifier. She made it past the Sweeper, and was 3rd on the Semi-Final. Unfortunately she ran out of time in the Wipeout Zone.
Here is a video of her perfect run:

Hi, Katie was definately amazing in that first run. She was so lite she just bounced over those big red balls. I was faceplant in that episode and made it to the final with her. Here's a little secret, she didn't actually run out of time in the final. She actually went before me so at the time she had the best time. You'll notice there was never a horn sounding to indicate time was up. They just switched the order on the show and played it up that she was finishing. Anyway, she's an awesome girl. Really friendly.

Technically she did wipe out on the Human Pinball because she went into the water.
