Janek Wetsky went crazy. His bar-spin variations in the sky gained him a lot of fans and made the airport go crazy. Sergej Geier nailed numerous impossible technical variation, including a 180 whip to 360 tap.
Felix Kirch won the high air contest, and did the highest flairs people have seen in a while. He also landed a backflip turndown to fakie. Nicky Van der Veen landed a whip to footjam whip and a flairwhip. Zdedna Pesek did many barspin and tailwhip tech tricks. Martin Cooper did two perfect runs of nonstop tricks. Markus Brauman landed a 360 tap to whip on the spine, fufanu to whip on the sub, and a flair 540 tap. Nicholi Rogatkin did a cannonball and a backflip on the spine.
And finally, Alessandro Barbero rode like a champion. Two runs of nonstop big tricks and action including a perfect 360 double whip on the spine and a 180 whip to fakie on the spine for best trick.
Overall, the event was a blast, and the airport fans really enjoyed the show. I really hope more contests in the airport start happening. The Lufthansa Spine jam was sick.
