To get things warmed up for the Best Trick event at Simple Session 25, the riders had 15 minutes to go in on the flat rail setup, with some euros up for grabs. Here's what went down!

On Thursday evening, the 25th anniversary of Simple Session commenced with the highly anticipated Best Trick competition, where athletes displayed their most daring and skillful tricks. A standout feature of the event was a specially designed rideable structure, which will later be relocated to Freedom Square to further enhance Tallinn's extreme sports scene.
Returning to a large-scale venue, this year's Simple Session milestone event unfolded in the historic Krulli repair hall, evoking memories of past competitions held at Põhjala Factory and Tartu Kammivabrik.
In the BMX division, the Best Trick Award went to Sasha Cambon (France) for his abubaca jam tailwhip out, a complex and visually stunning maneuver requiring extreme precision, balance, and swift footwork.
Elite skateboarders and BMX riders also had the opportunity to test their skills on "Kelluke," a new rideable sculpture developed through a collaboration between Simple Session and the City of Tallinn.
“Simple Session is more than just an annual gathering that attracts thousands of fans—it has inspired an entire generation,” stated Tallinn's Mayor Jevgeni Ossinovski, who officially inaugurated the Best Trick competition. He highlighted that the sculpture serves not only as a tribute to Simple Session but also as a valuable addition to the local community.
It's official - Simple Session 25 has begun! After the first practice, everyone moved venue to Krulli Warehouse for what turned into an absolutely wild Best Trick event.
