Many hoping to win a qualifying spot to the upcoming Asian X Games Qualifier presented by Toyota (click on: Asianxgames.com for more info!) some hoping to know where they rank against the country's other top athletes, and some coming for the experience of competition.
Taiwan's athletes will experience nothing less than a first class competition this coming Saturday and Sunday, August 4th & 5th. Spectators can check out the action on the Park course and also in the interactive village amidst the half a dozen , plus, sponsor tents! In the past, Taiwan's bicycle stunt riders have been the ones to watch!
Last year, Taiwan's park riders dominated at the Asian X Games Qualifier presented by Toyota, held on Phuket Island, Thailand! In 2000, Liao Wu Hsiung took the Gold medal in bicycle stunt park competition while his country man Chen Pang Chung walked away with the Bronze. Keep posted to see who comes out on top this time and for all the latest results, and updates on who will be Taiwan's action sports stars!
