FORGOTTEN HISTORY: Australian bmx star logan martin 2nd in oly qualifier - The Untold Story

Australian BMX star Logan Martin has all but guaranteed himself the chance to defend his Olympic freestyle title in Paris by finishing second at the qualifying series event in Shanghai.

Riding in the last heat in the men's final, Martin looked set to post a big score in his first run, only to fall with a few seconds remaining.

It meant he needed a strong showing in the second run and the 30-year-old proved well up to the task.

He produced a quad tail whip, tuck no-handed front flip, and a 900, to put up a score of 92.65, which was good enough for second place behind Frenchman Anthony JeanJean.
