Multiple entries, e.g., by submitting multiple "after" photos, are not permitted.
Full-body photos/videos are best suited to show the participant's complete transformation. These must show the participant either in swimwear or tight sportswear, so that the body silhouette is clearly recognizable. The participant's face does not have to be recognizable. However, the recordings must show that it is the same person (e.g., by using the same background or clothing).
Posts or before/after photos will be rejected if they (i) were submitted by a person other than the one depicted, (ii) originate from model agencies or similarly professionally produced sources, or (iii) have been retouched or edited.
By publishing the posts or uploading the before/after photos, participants agree that these may be used on the Organizer's Instagram account and on affiliated or related websites for marketing and promotional purposes. For this purpose, participants grant the Organizer a simple, royalty-free, unlimited in time, content and space right of use, including public accessibility, reproduction and editing for any purpose and in all media. Participants assure that they hold all rights to the posts or before/after photos, that the posts or before/after photos are free of third-party rights and that no personal rights are violated. If several people are depicted, they must agree to the publication. Upon request, participants must confirm this in writing. Should third parties nevertheless assert claims due to legal violations, participants shall indemnify the Organizer from all claims, including the costs of legal defense. Participants waive their right to be named as authors, to the extent permitted by law.
Posts or before/after photos that violate applicable German law or third-party rights are excluded from participation.
By participating in FIBO 2026 and/or the Summer Shredding Finals 2026, participants agree to appear on stage in front of an audience under competitive conditions – i.e., in swimwear or similar clothing – and to be judged by a jury.
The use of illegal or prohibited substances to enhance results is prohibited. Participants may be required to undergo tests and/or sign an affidavit,
confirming that their transformation was achieved without illegal substances. In the event of a positive test or refusal to sign the declaration,
the Organizer may disqualify the participant. In this case, the participant loses all rights to participate and receive prizes. The Organizer will appoint a substitute participant within fourteen (14) days. The provisions of Section 6 apply accordingly to their acceptance. The substitute participant cannot claim any travel that has already taken place.
The Organizer reserves the right to take legal action against participants who violate these terms.
