Today's Semi-Final was intense as 4 out of 12 riders will be selected into the Final. There are 5 clear rounds including SIN, THA, DOM, MRI, PAR and then it went to the jump off. Isabel DOM got a clear jump off round while the rest took one rail down. At last, our two Asian girls Janine SIN and Siengsaw THA finished in 3rd and 4th place and made it to the FINAL!!

"We are getting better and better everyday. We ride every day and every round with no regret and try to make the most of every opportunities as possible. So glad we are finally in the top 4! No matter what happen I will do my best and am very proud to represent Thailand here!! Thank you to P'Ae, mum and P'Kung who are here to support me and thanks to every support back home too! :)) "
