Two of the biggest heavy hitters in flatland, Kio Hayakawa and Yu Katagiri go head to head in this heated semi final battle at the Red Bull Circle of Balance last month in New Orleans. It’s also crazy to think they are both from the same city, Niigata, Japan! Hit play to watch this one go down!
W.T.H. ???!! Katagiri’s inside cross , switch b , pivot-walk through to quick ice cream , immediate bike varial AGAIN , step/ pivot to double footed back yard roll ! As his FIRST go in , haha…..He’s unreal , times 7……..then we have Kio step down with his weight against him in a cross pedal ice cream , carving INSIDE , via a blender !!

This one was all about hanging n banging ! Thank you ,again Effraim !
