Although it rained heavily at times yesterday, the biggest European AM Skate Contest Tour culminated with the Grande Finale in Innsbruck yesterday (2nd Oct). More than 40 skaters competed for the title, prize money (Men & Women: 1st place 1,100 €, 2nd place 800 € & 3rd place 600 €) and the chance to participate in the qualifications at TampaAm in November 2022.
There was expected a high level of skateboarding, but what the boys and girls delivered exceeded even our expectations! The hall was on fire, and outside in the Brand Village, the vibes were great. The action from the skate hall could be followed live on the huge LED screen outside! It was a celebration of the skateboard scene and an absolute blast.

Podium Women:
The Head Judge Stefan Ebner, explained the placement as follows:
“Jonas Carlsson won the BFF Finals and convinced the judges with his solid run with massive tricks, in which he used almost the whole hall.
Santino Exenberger secured second place with his flowing run, digging deep into the tech trick box.
Fredrik Tangerud skated to third place with a perfect run.
Julia Placek skated in a league of her own in the women's category. We saw a lot of stylish tricks from her.”
