“Competitors stepped up their game Sunday for the Semis and Finals of the Nike SB Berlin Open at the Shelter Skatepark. Another packed house saw the 30 qualified skaters from Saturday’s heats all take to the park in order to bring the rider count down to the 12 who would skate finals.”
“Consistency was notched up in the Semis as the €20,000 prize purse came into reach and saw Giorgi Balhhamishvili have one of his best ever comp runs, surprising himself into the last 12 and twisting up decent hurricane on the kink rail in the process. Equally as surprised was Hyun Kummer who was just under a minute late to his heat yet casually put down an ally Oop BS flip over the A frame and kickflips to both back and frontside 5-0 down the hubba, strolling into finals.”
