After a summer of heated qualifiers, the Vans Shop Riot Finals have returned. In partnership with Spitfire, Oakley and Stance, the 13th edition of the Finals landed for the first time at Manchester's Graystone Action Sports to crown this year’s best skate shop team in Europe.

For two days, the 13 best Skate Shop teams of the continent battled across different terrains and obstacles. First, they had a cash for tricks session on a mystery obstacle designed by Skateboard Café. Things got even more heated as the teams moved on to the Riot Finals contest in the street course. To wrap things up, the contest came to a close with a heavy Best Trick Bowl Jam, in partnership with Spitfire. At the end, it was Venero who came out on top, taking the crown for the third time in a row and becoming the first ever shop to achieve a three-peat.

The legendary “Antihero graphics duder” Todd Francis joined us from LA and brought the stoke with an exhibition of his work and original Shop Riot artwork that took place across the weekend, paying tribute to the event’s rich and riotous history. Some of Todd’s prints were raffled off with all donations going to The Ben Raemers Foundation.
