André Villa definitely with the best style factor - killer CrackNac
The final saw Mat Rebaud (Sui) tying on 330 points with Andre Villa (Nor). His higher placing in the qualifying round would edge him ahead and hand him the win through the tie-breaker system.

Mat Rebeaud backflipping into the 1st position - NacNac Flip
Third was Oystein Kjorstad (Nor) who continues to improve his form with every event. Fourth was Derek Burlew (USA), who despite not having a backflip in his routine in a field of 11 backflippers, still ran with the front runners with massive tricks and landing combinations. Fifth was crowd favourite Ronnie Renner (USA), who also captured the win in both the Highest Air and Team Whip contest with team mate Burlew. Rounding out the final was English madman Kris Brock.

Oystein Kjorstadt with an extended One-hand-Hartattack
The exploding riding level left established riders like Busty Wolter (Ger), Nick Franklin (NZ) and Nick de Wit (RSA) shut out of the final six despite high level rides.
Second in the Highest Air was Jimbo Verburgh (Bel), third was Rebaud, fourth was Burlew. The Team Whip contest saw Jimbo and Brock finishing second to the American duo. Third was the team of Wolter and Franklin. IFMXF number 1 Ailo Gaup had a shockingly bad qualifying run, goon riding his way to last position.
