It is no exaggeration to say that the X-TRAL JAM is an event that announces the arrival of the full-scale season, and this year too.This time, I'm surprised that three medalists from the Torino Olympic Halfpipe are coming.There is no doubt that the Japanese players who will meet it will also be enthusiastic!What kind of drama will be born?
First from the quarterpipe!
In the Japanese qualifying round, Daisuke Murakami, Takumi Suzuki, Takaharu Nakai, Fumiyuki Murakami, and Katsuya Tahara passed the qualifying round in that order!Daisuke makes the second front 5 lip-to-lip bita!While there are many players aiming for height in the vertical rotation system, I decided on the horizontal rotation exactly.
Rio managed to pass the qualifying.I'm aiming for the highest this year too!
The semi-final is a JAM session divided into A group and B group.
It was Daisuke Murakami who was sharp in Group A. It seems that the perfect timing is right for R.Travis is gradually getting better, and Antti Autti's 1080 couldn't be made up, but there was a big cheer from the venue.
Han (man) Rio is full of blood but has a high est of 4m70cm!
Celebrity rider Shaun White is finally here in Group B! !!A smooth riding style reminiscent of skating bart.There is no chance!Takaharu Nakai made 180 with straight air and entered the quarter with a switch? !!Make Switch Mac Twist from there! !!Nicolas Müller is fascinated by the high air with messy pork! Group B is also high level.
The result of the JAM session is
1. Travis Rice, 2. Nicolas Müller, 3. Antti Autti
4. Shaun White, 5. Daisuke Murakami, 6. Liszt Matira
You did it, brother.Daisuke advance to the final!
And the final is a 30-minute JAM session.
Sean's Mac Twist is perfect!Even high air is completely lip-to-lip.The list is also high!A sense of stability with outstanding spin.What kind of indirect is Nicholas?I put in the style of Kanji.Travis has an amazing sense of stability.Like a cyborg? !!Ante finally 1080 makeup!If you think about it, you will lose and Sean will also be 1080!In addition, the list is also exchanged at 1080! !!
Already!Sorry for the report full of marks.Daisuke also makes some good makeup, but are you really tired?Or rather, is the stamina of overseas players abnormal?
Anyway, the dreamlike 30 minutes of super-high-level tricks unfolding in front of me was just over.The result is as you can see.
▲ qp Rank.3 Risto Mattila
▲ qp Rank.2 Antti Autti
Sean was still very complete.I think Liszt and Ante were also pretty thin.These two have been quite hot since their appearance last year.Straight air is also a must-see for this Finnish duo.Travis was unfortunately unable to get on the podium, but it was pretty creepy.I'm looking forward to what you can do straight!
▲ qp Rank.1 Shaun White
Sunday after dawn.Straight jump!
Unlike the quarterpipe, seats are provided around BIG-X so that you can see from almost the entire Tokyo Dome.What a MC Nikui production.The lights of the audience's mobile phones shine like illuminations in the darkened venue!The entire venue is now one.
And the straight Japanese qualifying started.
Akifumi Hiraoka and Atsushi Ishikawa also appeared from our Snow Bancho.
First of all, Shota Suzuki made the F720 tail grab perfectly with 279pt.Atsushi made SW / B720 Indy Grab and made it to the provisional top at 291pt!First of all, Aki-kun is within range at 900pt with a marginal CAB276.Takato Taniguchi's Masakari explosion, almost 287pt in Vita. Shota 2nd hits 720 with CAB299 Melong Love!Then Takaharu Nakai made the second B2 indie grab perfectly and pulled it back with 900!It came out!Aki-kun double back flip indie, 309pt with the first Japanese perfect make-up! !! !!
1. Akifumi Hiraoka, 2. Takaharu Nakai, 3. Shota Suzuki, 4. Atsushi Ishikawa, 5. Takato Taniguchi, enough to see! !!
▲ Atsushi Ishikawa
▲ Akifumi Hiraoka
And the first main race with overseas invited players.
Nakai suddenly makes CAB1080! 308pt.Aki-kun CAB900 Melon is smoothly made up to 307pt. Expectations are rising for 300 overs in a row.However, Travis Rice made the CAB900 nose grab perfectly and 330pt? !!Liszt Matira decided the F900 tail grab coolly and 326pt.Heiki Sosa F900 Indy 307pt with holding.Matthew Klepel is SW / B900 Indy! !!Finally 341pt.Danny Kass is a SW / B rodeo with 333pt.Antti Autti CAB900 Japan Grab 320pt without complaint.It's normal for over 300 to have nosebleeds.
And the second one. There is no chance of winning in the first half of 2!Aki doubles back again!expensive!fast! Temporary top at 300pt! !!Perhaps he was upset by this, each player was disturbed by the landing and the score did not increase.I thought, Sean made CAB351 Melon Glove and 1080pt.Heiki also double-backed and exchanged 340pt.Ante makes F337 tail grab again and 1080pt
And here is the semi-final JAM advancement.I did the Snow Bancho Rider! !! !!
1. Akifumi Hiraoka, 2. Mathieu Crépel, 3. Shaun White, 4. Heiki Sosa
5. Danny Kass, 6. Travis Rice, 7. Antti Autti, 8. Liszt Matilla
And JAM in the straight jump semi-final was more exciting than in the quarterpipe.I can't even write the trick name anymore.If you list the tricks that left an impression on you, Sean made up with plenty of 1080.Ante had almost made up 1260, but was disturbed by landing and had a facial injury.Nice try!Travis fires styled tricks with outstanding stability.Aki-kun is also fascinated by the one-foot mute grab!Heiki, who hates to lose, also makes one foot perfectly!Matthew is super high 1080! !! JAM's fun isn't just about difficulty.It shows the style even with a technique with a small number of rotations.That is why this tournament is so interesting.Every time the landing was decided, the venue was filled with cheers.The dream of 30 minutes was about to pass.With only a few left, the venue is all standing! !!And Travis finally made up!Double back flip to180!It's impossible!
With the excitement of the JAM session chilling, the results were finally announced.
1. Mathieu Crépel, 2. Shaun White, 3. Travis Rice
At this point, the highest level final match in the history of X-TRAIL JAM is expected.And the long-awaited final.
The first one.Travis challenges double cork but does not fit the landing.Sean didn't make up because CAB1 had a little extra rotation.Meanwhile, Matthew decided B1080! 1080pt.This gave Matthew a considerable mental and point advantage.
However, it is this face that cannot escape with this. ..
The second one.Travis makes double cork (axis misalignment, double backflip to2) perfectly and with plenty of room!The venue was noisy.I aimed at the following Sean 180, but ... it didn't fit a little.And Matthew, SW / B1260? !!Makeup even though the posture is a little disturbed.All you have to do is wait for the results to come out ...
▲ sj Rank.3 Shaun White
▲ sj Rank.2 Mathieu Crepel
▲ sj Rank.1 Travis Rice
The results will be announced on the podium.What an amazing 377pt!Great reversal.
Travis Rice has won the championship without complaint.
▲ Spin Master Yuji Suzuki
▲ Ceremony
▲ NISSAN X-TRAIL
This X-TRAIL JAM has a drama every time, but this time it was a really spectacular battle from the qualifying to the final.And the big reversal play of the final.It goes without saying that the reporter himself was intoxicated as a snowboard fan, just like the crowd packed into the dome.
