10.10 The categories for today are Air, Combo, Regular and Send. A slight change from yesterday.
10.05 Neubauer with a massive Air Burner 360. If the practice was the comp then the final would be incredibly close so far… Livestream of the knockout final starts at 10.30!
10.00 The practice runs look promising for the final! All of the riders still have dry hair after some massive rotations.

10:51 A beautiful Air Double Air Funnel by Yentel Caers. Not going for the Skopu definitely payed off as he takes the lead
10:48 Another Skopu by the New Caledonian Antoine Albert. The Skopu seems to be the move of choice for this category.
10:45 Sarah-Quita answers with an Air Burner 360. She is certainly giving the men a run for their money.

10:40 Going for as much air as possible on the foil is of course Balz Muller. Lets see how the judges like that.
