18.19 PSA ASIA SNOWBOARD PRO TOUR
Round 10 halfpipe
"Freestyle Session in X-JAM"
Nagano Prefecture "X-JAM Takai Fuji"
Weather ☁️ / ☀️ Temperature 7 ℃
The second day of the Freestyle Session in X-JAM is a half-pipe competition.
Before the ski resort opened, it was difficult to get gas, but it was fine as expected.
Unlike yesterday, the situation is such that you can start smoothly according to the timetable.
However, while the temperature during the day was rising and it was extremely difficult to maintain the pipe condition, the halfpipe was kept in the best condition due to the hard maintenance of the Takahashi digger unit and the course maintenance of the Sato Gouki Motohiko digger unit.
From 10 o'clock, each rider will drop one after another in the official halfpipe practice.
At first, I felt like I was taken off by the bottom of the pipe, but from the third run, more and more players are deciding on splendid air tricks.
First of all, the first girl's run starts.
This system is a qualifying final style.
As usual, the top player is not the first player, but the player at the bottom of the ranking starts.
Last year's Takawashi Super Pipe Session Champion, Junna Asaya, performed perfectly and cleanly in the final race.
From the first hit tweak to 360, cavalerial, backside 540 to early oop, it is a nice run that keeps the height and is provisionally the first place.
Yukiko Ide, who finished the second run and took the third run in the provisional third place.Dropped vigorously, 2 from the backside tweak, and even though it was connected to the cavaler real, it stalled and finished without being able to reach the height.
The first 1 points were adopted and the third place was won.
Hinata Kaneko, who is in second place provisionally, brings a third routine to win the championship.
The tall backside air, 360 cavalry and the backside 540 were perfect, but the last hit, 540, caused a regrettable fall.Unfortunately, I couldn't increase the points and I got the 2nd place by adopting 86.75 points for the second run.
As for the girls, Junna Asaya, who marked a high score in the first run, drew the championship in the form of running away, and it was a feat of winning two consecutive victories from last year's Pro Tour.

Next is the first boy.
The first thing I decided to clean was the amateur Renju Murakami.High scores are expected especially in the tall grab air and spin combination.
Immediately after that, amateur Kira Masumoto shows off a more fascinating routine.
Finish with a nice run while raising the height from the backside indie grab to 720 and the last biteside 540.
And the oldest professional, Atsushi Kawasaki.The great thing about him is the sense of stability, and I've never seen a rodeo 540 or backside 540 fall down as it used to be.It was the acting of a legendary rider.
Megumi Kaneko was impressed with the very high smooth riding of the first and second rides.Even if the pipe condition changes, my slip will not change at all.In particular, the spins of the 1, backside 2, and rodeo 540 were smooth and reminiscent of air.
The two riders who were excited about the venue at this tournament were the Imai brothers.
It is Yuu Imai who has decided the perfect riding.The backside indie grab that was probably aimed at the highest height.From there, connect to 720 and Switch 720, and show off the routine that was conscious of winning by increasing the number of revolutions to 1 for the first and 540 for the second.
Imai's desire for that riding was not defeated, and the first and second ones could not be decided, but the third one was the back that was aimed from the rodeo 1, switch 2, rodeo 3 from the tall backside air. 720 is clean makeup.There was cheers at the venue.
As for the men's result, Yusuke Imai, who had perfectly decided the stable riding with the first and second runs, marked a high score and ended in the form of the first victory.
