The first preliminary round just got done here in sunny Abu Dhabi for the 2024 UCI World Championships. Congratulations to Yu Katagiri taking the top spot followed by Matthias Dandois and Yu Shoji. Top 12 make semi finals tomorrow.
Catching up with updates around the globe continues, today we have full coverage from the early morning start at Fise Shanghai. With Johann Chan on commentary duties, Kio Hayakawa came out on top, with Jean William Prevost and Ryo Katagiri rounding out the podium spots. Hit play and watch this unfold.
It’s an annual tradition, right at the end of the year the Matsudo locals throw down a jam at their infamous riding spot. Infamous through the Moto Sasaki videos (who sadly isn’t on this one).
As always there is a great variety of riding styles on offer here, some of the highlights of the edit for me are: Takahiro Ikeda two footed spinning death truck body varial out at 1:12, Wild x-up spinning lawnmower body varial to two footed x-foot backyard line at 4:58 by Ren Oshima, Varo Hernandez front to back wheel line at 7:19, Yu Shoji’s Xft opposite hang 5 to xft halfpacker line is amazing around the 7:56 mark, and Ren gets the banger at 8:27.
The flatland community waits for this edit every year, and I guess we should include this in the year end awards talk as it falls in 2023.
Thank you Jimalog, and all the riders involved in this annual jam!
Don’t sleep on this one!
