Scotty James goes into first with that run! Might not be for long though... No he holds on!

And as the field goes into the final runs, Scotty James in gold medal spot.

Great run from Australia's Valentino Guseli, but he scores less than expected. In sixth, Scotty James still in first.

Scotty James couldn't improve on his last run. Agonising wait now. Hirano pushes James into silver medal spot.
