Hello, I have seen loads of videos of Elias Assmuth Ride To Glor (Street) and others like Martin Winkler (Vert) I know it was a contest held on FFI but who won and who held and can you tell me any info on it thanks I am just curious

Well there's been two, the first one was won by Nico Frank
And there was a second last october, and it still hasn't been decided for whatever reason -__-
Check out my entry! haha

The guy is being an utter fucktard about it apparently he was in college when he was going to do the results and all the prizes were at home but he never announced and still even though he fingerboards hasn't announced it.

I think that's a little harsh. There's a variety of factors that contributed. 500+ videos for the judges to watch, which is nearly impossible to coordinate and force people to watch and judge all the videos. It sucks that it hasn't been announced yet, but I still have respect for David and hope he will announce soon!
As RDCruzer mentioned Nico Frank won the 2008 Ride To Glory - Street section of the contest. There was also a Vert section for the contest as well! I wonder who won that..

^lol I wonder indeed XD
I think the time frame is a little ridiculous, its been over a year since the deadline.. I've kind of given up all hope we'll ever see the results, but I don't hate the guy or anything.

fingerboard.de hosts a "King of the Forum" every year... but its just for fun, with less or even no prices... Its about having fun doing the tasks and watching the videos.
