4 strokes were and still are very popular in Europe. They never caught on here Stateside. I believe the whole Chinese team is Saito. The 62 and 72 can go up against anything out there.
Agreed, I notice at the 2012 WC.. the Chinese Team member Han Xin Ping's (with the 4-stroke) 3rd flights score is very competitive to Jeri Vejmola's scores (3rd place) which is Electric powered.
