The line-up consists of 16 top athletes on the FMB World Tour and about 50 pre-qualifiers. Filtered through the qualification round, the most impressive 14 riders will proceed to the big final. Here, they will ride for glory, 2015 FMB World Tour points and a chunk of the 10,000 Euro prize money. At the Panasonic Best Trick competition, the craziest three tricks will be rewarded with an additional 2,000 Euro.
