The King of Wood contest returns in 2008 to Rouen, France with a little bit more cash to be given away to the riders - € 15,000 - and the event is being held in pro and amateur groups. Nice looking street area with a large variety of banks, stairs and handrails to pack out the trick combos on and the bowl looks like a lot of fun. Maxime Genin was the King of Wood in 2007, taking the title from Daniel Viera who held it for two years straight in 2005 and 2006.
