In last year’s edition, all participants showed that the future of the sport is in good hands. The premiere edition 2019 saw two Austrian winners with Nicco Huber as Rookie Winner (under 19 years) and Daniel Bacher as Grom Winner (under 16 years). Let’s see if they will be able to defend their titles against competitors from across the world.

Additionally to the action on the mountain, the World Rookie Fest provides lots of interesting side-events.
The Austrian Freeski Days are taking place on Sunday, Feb. 16th, where the Austrian Freeski federation provides coaches for everyone who wants to learn their first freestyle basics. For registration please head to www.freeskiaustria.at. On Saturday evening all contest participants are invited to join the so-called “Feld-Schule”, here kids will learn how to use food in a more sustainable way to reduce the impact on mother earth. Kids will cook meals from food which supermarkets are not selling anymore due to e.g. best-before dates and will enjoy the meals together.
