If you haven’t already heard, Swatch TTR Art Rules is back! Make your mark on this year’s TTR Trophy and official Swatch Tour Watch and get your creative juices flowing. Each season TTR and Swatch come together to find the most creative design created by you, for the World Snowboard Tour Trophy and a matching Swatch TTR Tour Watch.

Last year’s winner, Frankie Leong, paid both physical and emotional tribute to that inspiring moment when the victor lifts their prize.

This year it could be your design making an entry into the history of Snowboarding! If you’ve got what it takes, then register at www.artrules.swatch.com and get started!

Check out the Wrap Up video from the 2011/2012 Swatch TTR Art Rules!

We all know the image: snowboarders only wear baggy pants (sometimes now real skinny rocker pants, too), drink too much and can’t behave properly at parties….well…let’s say that the gala night in Barcelona definitely proved the first stereotype to be untrue! Everyone tried their hardest to show up in an impressive outfit to shine on the red carpet and to make this event a full success.

Maybe we also proved the third stereotype to be untrue considering  the amount of free booze that was consumed and that we left the FAD Exhibition Hall in one piece (not like the hotel roof top afterparty area). It was a fun night with great people in a sick location. Barcelona rocks!
