Andreu's Superman-Flip=absolutley crazy! Ulrich Grill

The last rider of the second round of finals was Andreu Lacondeguy, who qualified first and wanted to stay in the top spot. Andreu rolled in and did a tuck no-hander flip on the first jump, a 360 on the second jump and a superman-flip on the last jump. Everyone was so impressed by Paul, Lance and Andreu’s second runs, but no one could tell who would come out on top because all of the riding were so unbelievable.

Going into the third round of finals, the riders all knew that they would have to put together insane tricks back-to-back in order to top the runs of round two. Riders were attempting to land a trick that hadn’t been landed yet, like a double tailwhip or a flipwhip.

In the end, no one was able to top the level of round two. The runs from the second round would most certainly prevail in the overall scores.

The riders and crowd speculated while the judges came to an agreement on the results. At an event where 720s and front flips were landed multiple times, judging could not be easy for Paul Rak and his panel.

At the end of the contest, Andreu Lacondeguy was able to hold onto the lead through finals and was awarded first place at the Milan stop of the Qashqai Urban Challenge. Lance McDermott followed in second place and Paul Basagoitia came in third place.
