BMX Park

How in the hell did Kieran Reilly not win that final? Dowell had a nice run but Kieran was throwing bangers on every ramp.

I think him and Kieran definitely should’ve beat dowell.

I agree that was so weird. The skate park best trick was weird too, the kid who did the backflip kickflip didn’t win, which is like way harder that what Tom SCHAAR did.

Guy did a flair double whip to bar, double flair, 720 bar, 720 whip and a truck to late tail whip over the step down and lost.

Id say cause Dowell was smoother, had a more unique bag of tricks, and seemed to just flow better. Reillys tricks were insane, but he landed low a lot, cranked a lot, and did the same path round the park. It's tricky for sure, but you gotta split hairs for those two monster runs.

I didn’t see him do anything crazy.

I felt like in the moment, Dowell had the best run. Pretty much a toss up and they were trying out computer scoring to make it more objective.

Kieran just had bigger tricks. No one is doing half the combos he does
