a rail off the side of the course with a deadly 15 foot drop below. Nonetheless, Timothy took the victory with an upledge hang five to tailwhip. Daniel got revenge with a cruising victory in high air, as he soared 4 meters above the 10 foot tall quarter.Sunday, finals went off in the scorching heat. Fans packed in until there wasnt a place left to stand to see the finale of biggest contest of the year in Russia. Denis Pavlov, a russian native who is becoming a world class street rider didnt ride like his true self on Sunday after taking a hard faceplant the day before when attempting a huge 360 drop. After claiming the top spot in the1st round qualifiers, Pavlov unfortunately could not reclaim his crown from last years Adrenaline Games. I was psyched to end up 4th on such a street course, and on pulling a 900 and a triple whip air on the amazing 10 foot quarter. Daniel Wedemeijer, possibly the crowd favorite of the weekend flew around the course, doing numerous crazy transfers and flying higher than anybody else. Maxim Chuprina threw down a flawless run and was proud to represent Russia on the podium. Garrett Reynolds, fresh off an X- Games gold medal, was the clear favorite coming in, and didnt dissapoint. He easily pulled the craziest street tricks and won by a crushing 12 points. I think every single person that watched or was part of the Adrenalin Games in 2012 was astonished with the quality of the event.
