In the Junior category Lucas Borba from Brasil was looking for the second victory in this Championship, but Gustavo Ortiz made a excellent run and got the first position follow by the Argentinian Juan Cruz Paez and by Francisco Matias from Chile.

With names as Mauricio Acuña, Mario Jarrin, Markolf Berchtold, Santiago De Santiago the PRO category was full of Panamerican medalist and WC riders.

After the qualify the Argentinian rider Santiago De Santiago was the fastest and one of the favorite, but Mauricio Acuña was the last winner in Brasil and the actual Panamerican champion so he was ready to fight for the first place.

Finaly Santiago De Santiago took the victory in front of all his friends and family, and Mauricio was second just a second behind, in third position was Pablo Noriega, fourth Markolf Berchtold and fifth Maicon Zottis.
