Tension was high on the course for the BMX Park finals. Everybody knew the stakes, which were often discussed, for the first ever UCI World Cup title for BMX Freestyle Park. Daniel Dhers fought until the very last second, landing as many tricks as possible to max out his final score, falling by just the fraction of a point behind Logan Martin, who laced more modern tricks, including a flip bar to whip. Despite going through some bad patches which only made more obvious the pressure weighing on his shoulders, the Australian rider earned himself a well-deserved victory in Chengdu, and thus the first place on the overall ranking too. He finishes just one step ahead of the legendary Daniel Dhers, whom we may all thank for keeping the suspense alive until the very end of this outstanding year!
