Posted on Monday, November 12, 2018 by Chris

Finals started off strong, with the first 3 runs all flawless. In the end, Japan's Daisuke Ikeda secured the top spot and came out the winner. Congrats again to Daisuke, Lucas Alves (2nd) and Angelo Caro (3rd) - you guys all killed it. Thanks so much to everyone who came out this year, all our sponsors and you for watching at home and we'll see you at Tampa Pro.
