10th Red Bull Nanshan Open 2012: Sam Hulbert - 2nd place

With judges including Michi Albin, Ingemar Bachman and Scotty Wittlake in charge of narrowing yesterday's 12 top-ranked riders down to four for the afternoon's Super Finals, the level of riding was significantly elevated from the qualification round as riders gave their all for promises of fame, glory and of course the TTR points and prize money.
After two runs each, USA's Sam Hulbert would enter the Super Finals ranked first, followed by Juuso Laivisto, Roope Tonteri (FIN) and Teddy Koo (KOR). In the end Sam Hulbert took second with a bs720 to fs1080 on the kickers and was the only rider to hit the jib section's oversized-pipe with a 50-50 to bs360 out.
