The lake of Fuyo, which shines on the surface of the water, can be seen in the distance under the eyes of Shinano Fuji, which has cleared up in the blue.
Kurohime Kogen Snow Park, Karamatsu Course A course with a total length of 340m from the start stand on the shelf in the middle and an altitude difference of 65m.
From the start, 4 gates connect the gentle slopes to the slope with a maximum slope of 20 °, with an interval of 13.5m pitch, 27 gates with a wide swing width, and 2 pairs of courses lined up in an orderly manner.The course that hangs slightly to the right crosses the fall line so that it climbs several times on the heel side, in front of the gentle slope, against the less affected blue course.Even toward the gentle slope in the second half, a wide set with a wide swing width was mercilessly driven until just before the finish line.Qualifying has begun, which undermines the speed and balance of each player, as if to catch up with the players who are suffering from inspections.
In the first qualifying run, Miki, who fascinated the overwhelming speed in the first race, was desperate to return during this term due to an injury on an overseas expedition, and will start from # 1 Shitaka (OGASAKA), who is currently at the top of the ranking.I ran a single run on the red course with a tight dripping and waited for the next appearance with a reasonable time of 1.Next, when # 41.18 Yugami (SG) and # 3 Yoshii (BLACKPEARL), who were doing well in San Lavia last time, finished alongside 4 and 42.41, respectively, # 42.78 Miyatake (SIG) gained momentum in the local victory last time. -NATURE) started, lined up from the blue course, passed through the gate and increased the pace with # 5 Maruyama, and Miyatake 6, Maruyama, 40.75 and each other set the leader time of each course.Immediately after, # 40.69 Mitsuka (AMICSS) breaks into 7 and # 42.07 Murata 10.
For the following boys, Noto, who won the opening two consecutive wins, is absent.It will be a race from the old and new champions who burn their fighting spirit toward the tour champion.When watching the girls' run, the time on the red course did not increase so much and the difference between the left and right seems to be clear.
The start of # 1 Kawashima (AMICSS) from the red course and Kawaguchi (OGASAKA) from the blue course.Almost at the same time, both of them go down the slope, and Kawaguchi precedes Kawashima, who is caught by the droop and loses speed, but both of them cut the finish while gasping on the wide gentle slope where the surface is not completed.Blue 37.28 against Red Kawashima 35.54 and the first clock of each course are hit and watch the following.# 1 Kojima ([SN]) and # 3 Sugimoto (SG JAPAN), who started shortly after, were tossed by the course and stalled in the 4 seconds range. # 40 Sawai (monster.jp), # 5KIMUTOMO (F6)ALBERTA) is attached to 39.76, 36.41 and behind Kawashima and Kawaguchi.In the blue course, # 8 Miyao (OGASAKA) was 37.54 and # 10 Toda (SG), while players who could not capture the set in each course and sank one after another.UPZ）が36.51と3番手を固め，#12今（YONEX.MAC）が37.58、#14今井（F2*VOLTAGE）37.63と続く。鬼門のレッドでは#13成田（AMICSS）が39.95、すぐさま後ろから#15後藤（RABANSER）が39.45と澤井を躱しコース2番手に食い込んだ。
In the first run, the difference between left and right is clear and it is difficult to judge the order of ranking.However, the heel side of the red course, which has a large dripping, is also formed by the gradually dug out course, and the bank is receiving it, and is trying to match the tsuji to KO.
Each person will be on the grid in the order of the second and first qualifying runs.
The girls started from Maruyama, who had the same order as the first one for Miyatake. The difference between the left and right of the first one still remains. Miyatake, who is superior to the first close battle, will be separated from the second one.Miyatake finished first with 1 with a difference of about 1 seconds like the first boy.Maruyama scored the goal with the second blue No. 1 watch, albeit 2.Following Shitaka, he was slightly hesitant to Maruyama at 1 in red and took second place in the total time to keep a good grid for KO.Yoshii stalled at 2 on the red course but barely defended the KO grid, and Mitsuka running next to him lined up with 40.86 and put two behind Maruyama. He hesitated Mitsuka and held the 42.91th grid.
Miki and Shitaka switch courses and get off to a good start.The course also started to show some roughness, and gradually began to peel its fangs toward the KO final.The change in the sagging of the red course subtly misleads the player and delays the clock.Miki is 35.50 and Shitaka is 35.70, which is thin.Following Miyatake 35.76, he was in close contact with him, and at the same time he hesitated Shitaka and secured a grid superior to KO in 2nd place.Yugami is 37.74, Yoshii is 38.54, and Tamao is 38.74.
Men, in the warm sunshine, the outside temperature rises as soon as possible, and the snow temperature approaches ± 2 °, creating a spring outfit.Carefully apply waxing to suit the measures for gentle slopes in the latter half of the long period. At the start of the second run, which fills in the difference between the left and right sides, which seems to be about 2 seconds, the course is changed as in the first run, and the course starts from Kawaguchi and Kawashima.Eventually, the reception of the bank of the red course began to lead to the next gate, and it ran to the finish alongside both without being significantly deprived of speed.Almost at the same time, Kawaguchi cut the goal line slightly and narrowed the gap to 1, but Kawaguchi 36.68 defended the 36.95st grid toward KO without cutting down the first savings.Following KIMUTOMO, Goto also made good use of blue's advantage, and Goto, who preceded him, had a good time of 1, and KIMUTOMO who gave up a little ahead was 1, and KIMUTOMO was behind Kawashima.
Immediately after, Toda chased hard, and while this was also a red course, he hesitated KIMUTOMO with a good time of 37.81 and emerged in 3rd place, while Sawai also came behind Goto at 38.63.Following Miyao, he was caught in the middle course and dared to DQ, and Narita, who was next to him, engaged Sawai with 38.72. In the 5th group, now and Kojima jumped up the pace and jumped into the course, Kojima hesitated Narita at 1 and put it behind Sawai due to a slip to recover from the first mistake, and still hesitated Goto at 38.18 and behind KIMUTOMO. Secure the 38.91th grid.When Sagawa (F5) was behind Narita at 2, Wakabayashi (OGASAKA), Okura (JENNY), and Wakabayashi 38.82 did not reach Sagawa slightly, and Okura hesitated Sawai at 7 and behind Goto. I took the 39.12th grid.

H0.21, Mitsuka also won the close battle of 2 difference in the first run and changed the ranking. Maruyama, who went in front of H2 and 1, did not reach the second run and lost to Kanazawa, dropping the ranking significantly. In H0.16, Yoshii fell on the course and Shitaka advanced the piece without returning to the front.
Men's 1/4 Final. There is no blind spot in Kawaguchi who exactly kills Kojima who won from 9th place.
KIMUTOMO, who had been doing well since the qualifying, was caught and changed the ranking now that he was in good shape with KO.Toda steadily beat Goto from the first run and won the race properly. In Narita, where AMICSS continue to crush each other, Kawashima prepares for the next stop.
Women's Semi Final
Miyatake's momentum, which was also visible in a row, did not subside, and he was enthusiastic about winning the final with a slip that did not show a gap to Mitsuka. Kanazawa, who wins from 2th place in the first run, is pressed to 1, but he decides the game in the second run and wins, and challenges the final for the first victory of this season.
Kawaguchi, who won the first run without any danger from the behind of 1 without allowing the current follow-up, advanced the piece properly.
On the other hand, even in the total qualifying time, the difference is 0.36, which is thin.
In the 3rd and 4th place deciding match, Kanazawa got a stand by reversing from the first run with a close margin of 0.23.The boys also moved up to the podium from the close game of 1 to the podium, which also attracted the reversal play.
Women's Final
Miyatake's strong performance, which has been in tune with the momentum from the previous victory, appears in the slide.
Shitaka, who boldly attacks Miyatake who shows a calm slip, is caught in the course in the middle stage and is exposed to the dust after Miyatake. The second run after receiving the behind of 1.38, Shitaka who goes out first and chases Miyatake who devotes himself to his own slip, Shitaka who gradually cuts the gap and tries to eliminate the difference of 2 gate, straight to the 1th gate The heel side that I aimed at was caught in the digging and the balance was lost, and even though I adjusted the body to the line that was slightly blown out, the edge did not get on and I lost speed.Miyatake will travel alone without shortening the distance again.
Miyatake, looking at the sign of Shitaka in front of the final gate, raised his fists and applauded his second win of the season when he cut the finish.
Women's results
1st place Shoko Miyatake Pro
2nd place Akari Shitaka Pro
3rd place Ai Kanazawa Pro
Men's Final
Toda takes the first stage of the final as he asks Kawaguchi for a chance to win the race against Kawaguchi, who does not show the effects of the cold and fascinates the dignified slip from the qualifying.
First of all, Kawaguchi's slip, which showed no danger from the first qualifying, overwhelmed Toda, and with a calm and dynamic slide, he pulled away Toda and turned back with a 1 behind.Toda chases the back of Kawaguchi who jumps out to the course first by about one gate and matches the start, but he attacks with a tight gate, but Kawaguchi who captures the course calmly does not allow Toda to follow.
Toda's fierce pursuit, which twists the nose's rampaging board by switching to the heel side, does not reach.
Kawaguchi clasps his right hand and bites the victory without waiting for the final gate and finish line.Withered voices responding to the encouragement of Shitaka and Miyatake waiting in the goal area, "Thank you."
