With Whip, 9-O-Clock Indian Air, Whip Backflip, Sidewinder Indian Air, 1-Hand Flip, Tsunami, 9-O-Clock, Stripper to 1-Hand-Landing, Surfer and Heelclicker Flip he got 239 points and ended up 4th.

With 196 points he only reached 6th position.

With 1-Hand Sidewinder Indian Air, No-Hand Backflip, Nac Flip to 1-Hand-Landing, Rock Solid, Cliffhanger, Whip, Heelclicker Flip, Superman Indian Air Backflip, Cordova Flip and a Superman Flip in Double-Up. At his IFMXF premier he reached 290 points and third position.

„Iceman“ Ailo Gaup was highly motivated, to defend his leadership in the World Championship. Heelclicker Flip, Whip, Superman Flip, 9-O-Clock, Holyman, Cordova Flip, Can Can Flip to 1-Hand-Landing, Cliffhanger, Heelclicker Flip, Underflip to 1-Hand-Landing. 305 points meant first position so far.

He started with a injured shoulder. 1-Hand Seatgrab Scorpion Style, 9-O-Clock, Scorpion Tsunami Indian Air, No-Hand Sideshow, Heelclicker Flip, Whip, No-Hand Backflip, Rock Solid to Seatgrab and a Scorpion Tsunami Backflip in the Double Up. He missed one trick and could only reach second position (290 points).
