Skate Finals

The 10th Anniversary of the Vans Wängl Tängl in Mayrhofen, Austria showcased two days of some of the finest transition skateboarding known to man.
The unique format spanned two days with a “Cash for Tricks” style Best Trick Contest, where skaters were handed cash every time they landed something impressive, followed by a two man team style session where skaters hit the ramp in pairs.

In the end, the final 4 teams split the prize money evenly, with each skater taking home 800 Euro. The Hobnobs: Manhead & Andy Scott, Team ZWIMI: Micky Iglesias and Phil Zwijsen, The Bats: Martino Cattaneo and Kevin Blaser, The Dutchies: Nassim Guammez & Daan.

Video and more pictures are coming soon.
