FISE Chengdu

DAKOTA SCHUETZ : FIRST PLACE

02 Nov 2018 09:43
This was the first Pro Final of FISE Chengdu 2018 and it did not disappoint!
 
We had a stella line up for this final with riders from around the world competing for the gold medal. The park has been built specially by FISE and will be left as a legacy for the people of Pidu to enjoy.
The format was simple 9 riders, 3 heats, each rider has 2 runs of 50 seconds and its the best run that counts.
 
The competition was fierce and riders were pushing themselves to the absolute limit. Top semi finalist Sogo Sakakibara from Japan could not repeat his semi final victory and prevent Scooter legend Dakota Schuetz from walking away with the gold medal. Dakota truly has it all technicality, speed and amplitude and it showed today as he scored a huge 90.33 which proved unbeatable.
