Kinseiryuho TAKAHIRO Memorial CUP round 1

PSA ASIA Snowboard Pro Tour round 1

Kinseiryuho TAKAHIRO Memorial Cup SX

sx1-1

The first round of the PSA ASIA Pro Tour starts at Kurumayama Kogen Ski Resort.

The weather will be better and the professional game will start in the best location !!!

It was a slippery condition with a solid burn condition on the whole course.

For boys, which player will be at the top in the absence of last season's champion Shinya Momono ???

And for girls, what kind of game will be developed with the top 3 of last season?

It looks like it will be a fun first match for both men and women.

sx-1-4

I think it is important for this course to take the line and how to step on the board.

There are many sections with many waves as a whole, and it is a course where you can not connect speed unless you step on the line firmly.

(Comment from Slope Builder from Tatsuhiko Hayashi)

sx1-6

Attention of the course is the first U tank section, many waves, difficult to line, bank section !!!

The first U-tank had an irregular two-stage structure, and the speed at which it was connected later was completely different depending on whether it was absorbed or flew, which was the highlight of the early stages.

 

Meanwhile, Sho Takahashi, Yuki Motoki, Kohei Motoki, and Keitaro Fukaura advance to the finals for men!

In the middle of the race, Keitaro Fukaura fell and the Motoki brothers and Sho Takahashi lined up just before the goal to cut the goal line !!!

sx1-2

Sho Takahashi, who won the championship for the first time in three years, won the slight difference !!!

 

The men's result is

1 Sho Takahashi

2 Yuki Motoki

3 Kohei Motoki

4 Keitaro Fukaura

5 Shoki Iino

6 Kenichi Terada

 

And for ladies, the turbulent development that the top 3 of last season will be defeated in the semi-final ...

The finals are Kaori Gokaichi, Maria Tomita, Eiko Nagashima, and Eri Gazuma !!!

Eri Gazuma fell in the first U tank, Eiko Nagashima was a little separated from the front, and finally Kaori Gokaichi and Maria Tomita were single combat !!!

And Kaori Gokaichi, who fascinated the splendid escape, went up to the top of the podium !!!

On the day of the G1 tournament the day before, the first ski cross exhibition match was held !!!

sx1-8

sx1-7 In-course hairpin curves that cannot be completely bent with a snowboard.

The sense of speed that can only be achieved with ski crosses made the viewers excited !!!

The power and fun of ski crosses were added, and it was a really exciting two days !!!
