The performer of the contest was without a doubt recently turned Chocolate pro, Vincent Alvarez, who was his usual tornado of fast skating destruction. Other standouts included legends Chris Cole and Omar Hassan. Cole even put in an extra effort in Foundation's "F'd Up Stair Set," which he wasn't slotted to skate, but because of an injury to Jamie Tancowny re-checked and saved the day for Zero.
The overall winning team was Pretzel Grip a controversial combination of members of the Girl, Chocolate and Anti-Hero teams. A bit questionable as far as "fair," goes, but who doesn't want to see Tony Trujillo, Vincent Alvarez, Chris Pfanner and Mike Carroll skate.
