Event History
The event in Livigno is the kick off event of the The “World Rookie Tour 2009 – The Conquer of the Snowboard Age”, a perfect example of the “rookie-to-pro structure”, which has been working so well also thanks to the great cooperation between WSF and TTR. The “World Rookie Fest” was consolidated throughout the years and it includes slope style competitions, sport, fun, didactical activities and moments for the getting together riders of different nationalities. These rookie fests are not just competition: they feature a bunch of other activities to help rookies grow in the field of professional snowboarding, such as photo&video shootings, avalanche and rescue clinics, meeting with photographers and international team managers, parties and big prizes.
At the end of season, the title of World Rookie Champion will be awarded to the winner of the Protest World Rookie Finals in Ischgl, Austria. This event is reserved to the top riders from previous Rookie Fests, plus selected riders from National Snowboard Associations and the top 30 riders from the upcoming World Rookie Rank. All rookie stops are reserved to Rookies (born from 1st january 1991 to 31st december 1993) and Grom (born from 1st january 1994 and up), both boys and girls. All contest of the World Rookie Tour will generate valuable results for the Swatch TTR Ranks and for the new World Rookie Rank developed by WSF in association with the Swatch TTR.
The first edition of the World Rookie Fest in Livigno changed the concept of snowboard youth event fixing a new standard and formats for youngster competitions. This included many features since 2005: high level of riding, professional organization, fun, social and didactical activities, TV productions and many other issues that feel the young beeing part of a professional sport. The 2009 edition will celebrate the 5th anniversary of this event announcing one of the greatest youth event ever seen: as kick off for “The Conquer of the Snowboard Age” saga, the Protest World Rookie Fest 09 in Livigno will nominate the “Centurion of Alps Domain”.
