PSA ASIA Snowboard Pro Tour Round 8 Snowboard Cross will be held at Sugadaira Kogen Pine Beak Ski Area in Nagano Prefecture.
The weather is fine all day and it is a perfect day for the tournament.In the daytime, despite the fact that it was February, it was a warm spring day.
The course has a total length of 500m.The start section starts with a section that is fine and has technical differences such as climbing stairs, irregularly arranged roll section, left bank, right bank, curving roll section, cone roll, camel, step down, and finally. Goes over the table top.
First of all, girls.
Featured players are Kanae Maeda (APEX JAPAN), who is currently No. 1 in the PSA ranking, Yuka Nakamura (TEAM MAC), who is also No. 1 in the rookie, Terumi Kawai (FANATIC), who is No. XNUMX in the PSA ranking, and Kaori Terayama (No. XNUMX). VOLKL) Probably.
I would like to expect that a rider who breaks into these four strengths will appear.
The players who have won the women's final are Kanae Maeda, Kaori Terayama, Terumi Kawai, and Yuka Nakamura, who has won two rookie seasons this season.
Yuka Nakamura jumped out of the start section, followed by Kaori Terayama and Terumi Kawai Kanae Maeda almost side by side.Kaori Terayama came in second in the roll section to the first bank.Immediately behind them, when they entered the first bank side by side, the boards touched each other and both of them fell.When this happens, the battle between Kaori Terayama and Yuka Nakamura.Kaori Terayama lined up with Yuka Nakamura in the remaining two sections.Whether it was just inserted or Yuka Nakamura was sticky, she scored the goal almost side by side.
The results are as follows.

Yuka Nakamura is the third win of the season.He is a player who is looking forward to further success in the future.
Then, boys.
Shinya Momono (Win Corporation) and Yoshiki Takahara (Oxess), who had been competing in the world, participated in this tournament, and the battle was almost full members.In that case, the players to watch in this tournament will be the final regulars Kohei Motoki (Murasaki), Yuki Motoki (Murasaki), Shoki Iino, and in addition to this, the World War Group.
In the first half of the third round, three players, Shoki Iino, Shinya Momono, and Yoshiki Takahara, had the same heat, and Shoki Iino was eliminated here.
And the four people who remained in the final are the Motoki brothers, Momono of the world war group, and Kogen.
Now, the final call was made, and at the same time as the gate opened, four people reacted and jumped out.
It was Kohei Motoki and Yoshiki Takahara who got out of the start section, followed by Shinya Momono and Yuki Motoki.In the roll section up to the first bank, Kohei Motoki and Yoshiki Takahara competed side by side, with Shinya Momono in XNUMXrd and Yuki Motoki in XNUMXth.In the first bank, Yoshiki Takahara, who was on the inside side, took the lead and Kohei Motoki immediately behind, and in the second bank and the roll section in the middle, Yoshiki Takahara chased, but Yoshiki Takahara kept the lead.While doing so, Shinya Momono in the back gradually closes the gap with Kohei Motoki, who is second.
Yoshiki Takahara, followed by Kohei Motoki and Shinya Momono, passed the last table top almost side by side.
The results are as follows.
Men's results
1st place Yoshiki Takahara

4th place Yuki Motoki
5th place Miyano Sodai
6th place Taketaka Tekei
In addition, Yoshiki Takahara, who has become even faster, hopes that further growth in the future will contribute to the excitement of the Japanese snowboard cross world.
Since this course was short, I think the point was how to handle the start section and how to match each section carefully and without mistakes.
Also, the wax choice that matched the cold and hard burn in the morning to the cheerfulness of spring would have influenced the victory or defeat.
We would like to express our sincere gratitude to all the players for having a very enjoyable race from young to veteran.
