I wasn't there but Nick must have rode really well to make the 4 man final. I am not exaggerating when I say the riding in Junior Men has to be seen to be believed. Nicola told me that Nick fell doing an air trick out in the flats (which wouldn't count anyway). You cannot free ride in these comps. Especially when you consider how hard it is to make the finals. He has qualified for the rest of the tour though which is an achievement in itself.
I have not seen Nicola's pass but Dallas went out before her and stood up. Nic went out last and landed (not in this order obviously) 911, Moby Dick, Scarecrow,Batwing, Tootsie Roll, Heel 5, Frontroll, Whirly and maybe one other trick.She also stood her pass. Apparently she killed it on the rails and ended up winning quite comfortably.
She tried a backside 5 at the dock as her wildcard trick, even though she has never landed one before, and almost knocked herself out. Go figure. Lol.
