Watch the Full Recap of Simple Session 2023
It was an exhilarating four-day experience for contestants and spectators in Tallinn, Estonia during Simple Session 2023 last week.
Dane Burman claimed the MVP award on the initial day at Freedom Square by defeating every obstacle in his way.
The following day witnessed the downhill races at the DIY on Skoone Bastion hilltop, and only Julian Agliardi managed to roll away from the sketchy handrail successfully.
The next two days were spent indoors at the old Pohjala rubber factory, which featured a new custom skatepark and a mini ramp in the adjacent room. The qualifiers, mini ramp jam cash-for-tricks, finals, and Best Trick events all took place.
In the finals, thirteen-year-old Julian Agliardi emerged victorious by a narrow margin, beating out Danny Leon and Elias Nilsen with his last run.
During the Best Trick, Jaws performed insane airs and transfers over the quarterpipes, bar, and pillar, while Yurii Korotun took the honors beside it on the flat bar.

Giovanni Vianna earned his first Street League Skateboarding Super Crown title last year. Will he be able to defend his crown in the 2024 SLS Tour?
Let’s rewind to how Giovanni was able to push his way up to get the Super Crown.
In the Chicago and Sydney stops, he managed to land in the nine club in the knockout rounds, but they weren’t enough to get him to the finals.
But come the Super Crown Championships, he was able to land three nine-club scores, with 9.4 being the highest, enough to snatch the crown from his closest rival, Vincent Milou.
Watch how it all went down in the video above.
