00:00 pretty wild big jumping bike flips.

00:02 So keep our eye peeled,

00:04 and most likely the entire crowd go nuts.

00:07 - Starting with speed for Yu Shouji.

00:13 On the front wheel.

00:17 - He's another rider though that can focus

00:24 on both parts of the bike.

00:25 And we saw that big hop there

00:27 from the front to the rear wheel.

00:29 And that again is very heavily rewarded

00:32 because you've got to basically transfer

00:34 different parts of the bike.

00:36 And it's also changing the angle

00:38 in which it touches the ground.

00:39 So it's hard to work through that precision.

00:43 So Yu Shouji right now starting his next link

00:45 on that front wheel.

00:48 - Pushing to gain speed.

00:56 What's going to be the next part of his combo?

00:59 - Yes.

01:00 Stomping it.

01:04 - Two minutes left on the run.

01:10 (speaking in foreign language)

01:13 - So that's that speed generation.

01:30 And I love the way that he's able to just

01:32 lean the bike over like that.

01:35 The further that it is from your center point of gravity,

01:37 the harder it is to have that balance point

01:40 and still rotate around.

01:42 So we're just past that halfway mark on the clock.

01:46 - Yu Shouji accumulating the combos

01:53 and the technical moves.

01:56 Big transfer here on the front wheel.

02:00 (speaking in foreign language)

02:04 - What?

02:11 Insane.

02:14 - Huge hop.

02:14 That's what we talk about switching.

02:17 And that's such a risky move

02:19 because you have all cement and rolling

02:21 and you're transferring your weight

02:23 while you're doing that big loop of faith.

02:25 And then you have to find the balance point

02:26 on your other wheel.

02:27 (speaking in foreign language)

02:31 - 30 seconds left on the clock for Yu Shouji.

02:36 (groaning)

02:37 Feet down.

02:39 It was perfect up to this point.

02:41 - Well, let's see if he can recover

02:44 'cause Mathias Dandoye did touch down

02:46 and still got into the 90s.

02:48 So let's see if Yu Shouji brings a big hammer.

02:50 - Yeah, that's not quite as stomp as he would have liked,

02:57 but saved it.

03:00 Yes.

03:05 Yes.

03:07 Finishing strong.
