Why did Kolohe deserve to win and not Italo?
In the smallest detail, this is how the title definition looked in the first stage of the year
When it comes to such a close call, it's important to look at the small details to determine who won an event. It's not enough to just watch the replay, it has to be done in slow motion and paying attention to every little detail.
In the case of Italo versus Kolohe, we can determine it as follows:
Aerial height: Kolohe wins
Cleanliness in execution: Kolohe wins
Control: Tie
Wave height: Kolohe wins
Rotation: Italo wins
This is why it is clear to think that the winner of that final was Kolohe Andino and that the judges fell victim to other good performances by the Brazilian and thought that this rotation could match that of the Californian.
Slater expressed the same sentiment, Nathan Webster, Keith Malloy and Hiroto Ohhara in a note published today by Stab.
Italo Ferreira's dirty takeoff, the low height of the same, the low height of the wave gave the victory to the Californian, but the judges did not see it that way.
