Event History

Ruka, Finland 8-11.4.2010 is going to see yet another all girls ultimate showdown - the Oakley Girlsessions. This event is famous for attracting female riders of all levels from Finland, but also attracting more and more girl riders from all over the Europe to hit the perfectly shaped Ruka BatteryPark.  Girls have a possibility to compete in different levels including a 3Star Swatch TTR contest, freeskiers slope style, team contest, individual slope style and pipe competition. No matter if you are a newcomer or a pro or riding snowboard /skies.

Last year it was Enni Rukajärvi who won the TTR contest. This year Enni has shown the whole world what the Finnish girls are made of! As we all know, she recently won Roxy Chicken Jam, Burton European Open and event Burton Canadian Open slopestyle contests. Enni is a real Ruka local, born in Rukajärvi, 5 kilometers from Ruka ski resort and has been riding her whole life at Ruka BatteryPark. She is a living proof that Ruka provides great training conditions for upcoming young riders and helds great events.   “Bringing a TTR event here is great for all us Finnish girl riders, as there are not too many opportunities here at this level. It really gives a chance for the riders to develop.” Said Enni after her last year’s win.

Year 2010 Oakley Girlsessions has a lot to offer for the riders. 3Star swatch TTR event with total 2500$ prize money, total around 10.000$ value prizes in kind for all riders participating the event. A lot of side events will be organized, including bowling, theme parties and last but not least… possibility to see the mystic forests of Northern Finland, where the reindeer roam freely! This is what Polish riders Agnieszka Rusin has to say about her last years visit: “The BatteryPark was perfectly shaped and provided a progressive playground for the girls, with its double kicker line and diverse rail section. The international riders were impressed by the park and enjoyed the exotic experience. It’s easily one of the best parks I have ridden in Europe”.

The four day long event brings together all levels of girl freestyle enthusiasts to have fun together! The event, what culminates into the 3Star TTR Slope style competition, is the event not to be missed. So make sure you book your flights for this year’s grooviest event!
