PSA ASIA Snowboard Pro Tour round 5 SX
KSBA Cross Festa
The heavy snowfall until the day before was a lie, and it was the best day for the tournament.
This will be the second round of the Snowboard Cross !!!
Unlike the previous Kurumayama plateau, there were only two banks and the last was a straight course setting, so it was a completely different cross course.
The step-up kicker from the steep slope in the second half and multiple waves are quite fast, so there was a lot of cheers from the gallery !!!
And this time, Shinya Momono, who ranked first in the men's ranking last year, returned to Japan after finishing the world tournament, and the top prizewinners in the first round also participated fully and became the highest level tournament.
What kind of race will the girls have in the top rankings?
In the boys, Nobuki Takahara, a 17-year-old amateur, made a wonderful slide and advanced to the semi-final, and also won the right to be promoted to a professional in the final result 5th place at the top of the small final !!!
The final was narrowed down to last year's champions Shinya Momono, Kohei Motoki, Yuki's brother, and Kazuki Maeda.
In the first half, they were almost side by side, but after the second bank, Kohei Motoki and Shinya Momono, who were chasing after the second bank, exchanged brilliantly in the last section, further extending the PSA ASIA tour consecutive win record.
The men's result is
5 Nobuki Kogen
The women are Kaori Gokaichi, who won the championship last time, Ai Kodama, Masami Higashida, and Maria Tomita, who are the women's champions last year.
Last year's champion Ai Kodama lost the semi-final in Kurumayama, so how do you aim for revenge for the previous champion, Gokaichi?
Race prediction of how far Masami Higashida and Maria Tomita will bite there!?!?!?
Maria Tomita fell in the first half of the section.
In the last section of the course, the remaining three people lined up vertically and made contact at the place where Kaori Itsukaichi was pulled out from the inn of Ai Kodama who was running first.
Both of them went off course, and Masami Higashida, who was running in XNUMXrd place, slipped through and won the championship !!!
Women's results
The girls were really excited about the race.
Next is the final round of the cross and the stage is Takasu Snow Park !!!
I'm looking forward to what kind of hot drama will be born !!!
