At Modena Reira Iwabuchi and Takeru Otsuka win the snowboard World Cup big air

Japanese double in the big air of the snowboard of the World Cup in Modena held within Skipass, the Tourism and Winter Sports Fair.

Here the complete result of the female final stages! Here the ranking of the Women's big air World Cup! Here the complete result of the final male stages! Here the ranking of the men's big air World Cup! The women's race was won by the 16 year old Reira Iwabuchi, the third success in the Cup in the specialty, which with a total score of 166.50 (unlike in the qualifications where it was taken into account the best run here in the finals are added the two best run on three disputed for each athlete) has beaten a point and a half compatriot Miyabi Onitsuka (165.00), who pitted the last difficult jump after being in the lead in the first two runs. The two Japanese had closed in the same positions and in the same order also the New Zealand race of Cardrona last September. The lowest step of the podium for Anna Gasser (159.50), the Austrian dominating the specialty is still among the top three without risking anything except in the first run but is likely to have already found in Iwabuchi, which commands full score the ranking of specialties after two races, his heir. Fourth the Swiss Lia-Mara Bösch (145.25), fifth the Norwegian Silje Norendal (130.75) and sixth the Czech Šárka Pančochová (36.50), in the evening completely not after having passed well the qualifications. Also among the men, who gave a great show, Japanese triumph with Takeru Otsuka, also classed as Iwabuchi in 2001 with the difference that the 17 years has already accomplished them while Reira will make them next December 14th. Otsuka with a total score of 186.75 won his first race in the Cup thanks to a second crazy leap that yielded him 96.00 points (and that the TV of our public service managed to get lost, only jump between the 47 went on stage). According to 1.75 points the American Chris Corning (185.00), who in the last run tried a desperate 1800 ° but being the landing area too short in proportion to the enormous length of the ramp landed flat and fell . Third place for the Finnish Kalle Jarvilehto (179.25), author of a last run of 93.25 points with a fall but luckily very far from the landing point. Fourth place for the other Japanese Ruki Tobita (174.25), fifth Norwegian Marcus Kleveland (170.50), sixth Dutchman Niek van der Velden (168.00), seventh Finnish Roope Tonteri (164.75) , eighth the New Zealander Tiarn Collins (152.50), ninth the Austrian Clemens Millauer. (112.25). Finally the tenth with 22.75 points the blue Alberto Maffei, already very good at qualifying for the final stages with a painful ankle, the 23 year old from Trentino has the first two jumps and then renounced the last run. Corning and Otsuka will present ex-aequo leading the classification of specialties at the next round of the big-air World Cup, scheduled for Friday 23 (male and female qualifications) and Saturday, November 24 (final male and female) in that of Beijing.
