18.19 PSA ASIA SNOWBOARD PRO TOUR
Round 11 Straight Jump
"Freestyle Session in X-JAM"
Nagano Prefecture "X-JAM Takai Fuji"
Weather ☀️ Temperature 5 ℃
Freestyle Session in X-JAM is finally the last day.
The last is a straight jump competition.
A big kicker installed right in the middle of the slopestyle course on the first day and the half pipe course on the second day.
According to Mr. Gouki Sato, the captain of the course digger, the 18m kicker will be used to inform each rider.
The weather is finer than yesterday and the venue seems to be exciting.
And above all, the kicker is installed in a place where you can watch the game from anywhere on the course, so it is the best location.
First of all, the official practice starts slowly.
The rider's tension rises as the first and second runs.
Occasionally, four or five riders train and cheer when they see the air flying continuously.
How many tricks will you get in qualifying?
First of all, the women's qualifying starts.
Top start Mao Aizawa suddenly attacks with backside 720.Unfortunately I fell down and I would like to expect the second one.
And Yusuke Murase and Yuri Yoshiya will surely earn points with the switch 540 that can afford.
While 540 seems to be the standard trick for girls, Rina Yoshiya decided the switch under 540 perfectly and put out a slightly different style even with the same 540.
And Maoi Kunitake, who has decided the only backside 720 in the latter half of the girls.The flight distance is sufficient, the landing is perfect, and a high score is expected.
The second run was a style in which all the players attacked to advance to the final, but with many riders falling over, Mao Aizawa, who started from the top, decided exactly 2 and advanced the piece to the final.
By the time the first men's qualifying session started, the weather and conditions were in excellent condition.
After all 1080 is expected to become a men's standard trick.
And since the degree of perfection has increased to that high rotation, where does the difference come out?
First of all, Ryo Aizawa, who is the top starter, decides on a double cork 1080 with a margin.
Next, Daisho Ogiwara, Atsuhiro Suzuki, and Ruki Morii will continue to make Double Cork 1080.
Even in the 1080 battle, Yota Tsuji and Kaito Jinguji were fascinated.Not to mention the degree of perfection, the height and flight distance were the best qualifying slides.
Rikuto Watanabe, who participated in the war from an amateur, sparked in the professional melee pattern. From the first run, the double cork 1 was made clean and the tournament venue was very lively.
The men's qualifying was successfully completed, hoping that it would be fascinating even in the final.
As the snow conditions became softer, the course digger's careful maintenance made it the best final round.
The judge system of the final will be contested by the total of tricks that adopts spin directional and puts one clockwise and one counterclockwise.
I think each rider won in the qualifying while imagining the system.
Five girls, Rina Yoshiya, Yusuke Murase, Mao Aizawa, Yuri Yoshiya, and Maai Kunitake, have won.
Yukaku Kakimoto (Ama), Atsuhiro Suzuki, Yu Onuma (Ama), Shunichiro Abe, Ryo Aizawa, Ryuki Morii, Kaito Jinguji, Rikuto Watanabe (Ama), Daisho Ogiwara, and Yota Tsuji.
First of all, Rina Yoshiya, who has an outstanding sense of stability from the qualifying, makes the Switch 720 perfectly.
If you don't make two of the three, you won't be able to get into the upper ranks.Maoi Kunitake couldn't decide on the first and second runs, but he decided on the third front side 3 brilliantly.
The first run of Yusuke Murase earned points with a reliable switch 1, and the third run made a switch 540 with a degree of completion higher than qualifying.It was Rina Yoshiya who attacked with the front side 3 for the third run after seeing the run, but was the grab time a little short?Although he had won in the number of revolutions, Yusuke Murase surpassed by a small margin in total points, and was the second consecutive win following the slopestyle.

In the first men's final, Kaito Jinguji will decide the perfect backside 1 as the first one following the qualifying.
Unlike the qualifying, Rikuto Watanabe, who felt the strength, will definitely earn points on the front side 1080.
And the second final.While the victory or defeat is decided by this one, Ryo Aizawa hits the final highest score with perfect make-up of front double cork 2.
Atsuhiro Suzuki was fascinated by the stable riding while the upper ranks changed rapidly.
The first back double cork 1, the second front side 1080, the third back double cork 2. All three were definitely decided and the number of revolutions was increased, and as a result, the Pro Tour first victory was won. ..
