Shanghai – Everyone will be holding their breath as the AIL Vert Finals get underway at 1400 local time at the KIC Jiangwan Centre.

Asian AIL action sports idol, Takeshi Yasutoko, won last year’s title in a tight finish which saw his brother Eito pipped to second place by Aussie Shane Yost. Will we have another cliff-hanger yet again?

There is also a return for Mohd Firdaus who caused a major upset when he ousted his idol and rival Chris Senn in last year’s SK8 Park final. Can the Singaporean repeat his feat to prove last year’s was no fluke? China’s Xie Wenkai will definitely be cheered on by the locals – can he improve on his fifth placing last year and perhaps reach the podium? No matter what, get ready for a hairy time as KIA X Games Asia 2008 comes to an exciting conclusion!

Highlights:

AIL Vert Finals: 1400 – 1500 (Shanghai time)

SK8 Park Finals: 1600 – 1700 (SHT)

Medal Presentation: 1730 (SHT).
