First Ever Blue Tomato X Zumiez Best Foot Forward Contest in Maribor is Complete!

60 Skaters destroyed the park at the Maribor Stop of the Blue Tomato X Zumiez Best Foot Forward Europe Contest this weekend. Image credit: / Blue Tomato

Monday, July 12, 2021
The fourth stop of the Blue Tomato x Zumiez Best Foot Forward Europe Tour took place in Maribor for the first time ever. With skaters from 8 nations we had the most international riders field in the history of Best Foot Forward in Europe.

We are more than happy to set up the contest with the Skatepark Maribor crew. Due to the great cooperation with the locals, we were able to welcome 60 skaters to the contest.
Even though the sun was burning, it did not prevent the skaters from destroying the park.

Another highlight of the day was the surprise Session hosted by the Skatepark Maribor Crew at the big stairset. All skaters were able to show off some tricks and earn some cash.


Podium

Men:
1st place: Martin Atanasov- @martin_sk8atnsv
2nd place: Luca Bozic - @lukabozicek
3rd place: Kaloian Trenkov - @kaloian_trenkov

Women:
1st place: Hana Terrell - @hanabellask8
2nd place : Rajana Spiljak - @asfaltina_betonovic
3rd place: Sara Pusnik - @sara__pusnik


Our travel judges Stefan Ebner and Gienna Giese gave us a comment on the performance of the highest ranked skaters:

Martin Atanasov: started his run with a moz back tail and backside desaster in the deep section of the bowl. After that he showed high speed tricks like gap to nosebluntslide at the rail. At the end he really destroyed the park with his hardest trick, a bs 270 lipslide at the big handrail.

Luca Bozic: really deserved the second place. Highlights of his final run were his switch frontside feeble at the small rail, switch back tail at the small hubba and a front board at the big handrail.

Kaloian Trenkov showed us a 180 fakie 50-50 at the small hubba, Kickflip Wallride in the bowl section and boardslide up and over the kinked rail.

Hana Terrell was the only girl who showed us a 50-50 on the high ledge. Her style was great to watch especially topped with her kickflips.

We are also happy to have two of our Blue Tomato Teamriders joining the contest in Slovenia. Paul Götz and Philip (Phüz) Gebeshuber both qualified for the finals. Phüz finished 12th and Paul 10th.


Here are the results of the Qualifiers and the Finals.
