Second place went to <strong>Daniel Moragues </strong>with highlights like bs smith on the big rail and tre flip down the big stairset. <strong>Chris Khan</strong> secured third place with less bangers, but a well-rounded mix of tricks on almost every obstacle of the park. In the women's division it was a close call between<strong> Julia Placek </strong>and<strong> Zuza Bone</strong> with Julia taking first place finally. But as she already has a ticket to the finals, Zuza will also be invited to the Best Foot Forward Finals in Berlin.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Here are the results of the <a href="https://theboardr.com/results/10667/Best-Foot-Forward-Maribor-Qualifiers" target="_blank">Qualifiers</a> & <a href="https://theboardr.com/results/10668/Best-Foot-Forward-Maribor-Finals" target="_blank">Finals</a>.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Pictures & Videos</strong></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><a href="https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1wCnOJUnKaHK5gIfkD-kmSKNYOjnn4xFu" target="_blank">Pictures</a> to download.</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Photo credits: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/jernejzadravec/" target="_blank">Jernej Zadravec</a></div><div style="text-align: justify;">The recap video will be up on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/bestfootforwardeurope/" target="_blank">@bestfootforwardeurope</a> Instagram soon!</div><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">We are also happy about the participation of our Blue Tomato Teamriders! </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">We say THANK YOU to all skaters, visitors, and partners who were there and are looking forward to the next Best Foot Forward Europe tour stop in <strong>Trondheim</strong> on the<strong> 3rd of June</strong> at Regnbueparken.</div><div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">And a big shout out to our sponsors:</div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.redbull.com/" target="_blank">Red Bull</a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.blue-tomato.com/de-AT/brand/Dickies-21/" target="_blank">Dickies</a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.blue-tomato.com/de-AT/brand/Cariuma-10000585/" target="_blank">Cariuma</a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.blue-tomato.com/de-AT/brand/Nixon-240/" target="_blank">Nixon</a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.blue-tomato.com/de-AT/brand/Toy+Machine-6087/" target="_blank">Toy Machine</a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.blue-tomato.com/de-AT/brand/Bones+Wheels-6217/" target="_blank">Bones Wheels</a> & <a href="https://www.blue-tomato.com/de-AT/brand/Bones+Bearings-10000127/" target="_blank">Bones Bearings</a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.blue-tomato.com/de-AT/brand/Ace-10000068/" target="_blank">Ace Trucks</a></div><div><br /></div></div><div><br /></div><div>More information about the upcoming tour stops can be found <a href="https://www.blue-tomato.com/de-AT/blue-world/skate/best-foot-forward-tour-europa/" target="_blank">HERE</a>.</div><div><a href="https://www.instagram.com/bestfootforwardeurope/" target="_blank">@bestfootforwardeurope</a></div><div>#bestfootforwardeurope</div>
