So the World Rookie Tour reached Bulgaria, on the shores of the Black Sea, in the beautiful resort town of Tsarevo, where, hidden under the shade of centuries-old trees, is the X challenge park. A place created with love for extreme sports, contact with nature and an atmosphere that will make you feel at home.

Together with TRS studio, the boys and girls from X-challenge tried to make all visitors feel the experience and  the unique atmosphere of the World Rookie Tour.

On the first day, Chris Dragoshinov from BOARD LAB held a free workshop for beginners and advanced skaters. Within 2 hours, the youngest were able to take their first steps on a skateboard, and the more advanced ones cleared different elements of their ride.

The next day was the park competition in the famous X-Challenge pool. The local talents showed enviable self-confidence and skills, but above all was Diyan Petkov from Burgas, who showed class and deservedly goes to the finals in Prague.

Zivodar Chakarov from Burgas came second, and 8-year-old Viktor Petsov from Varna came third.

On the third day of the impromptu street course set up by Event Chief Judge – Balázs Györki from Hungary, the atmosphere was once again high, with the music from the Red Bull car fueling the competitors further. Again, everyone gave it their all and perhaps not coincidentally, the ranking from the pool was repeated in the street race. In this way, Zivodar from Burgas grabbed the second ticket to the finals in Prague and together with Dido will represent Bulgaria there.

Apart from them, the organizers decided to finance a 3rd ticket to the finals, for the only girl who dared to ride in the pool and on the concrete in Tsarevo, and that is Tsvetelina Hristova from Sofia. Tsveti showed great riding in the pool and won the hearts of the judges and the audience.

With that, the 3-day SEA & RIDE summer festival has come to an end. And what we didn’t say is that in addition to skating, during these 3 days there was also a lot of surfing, SUP, beaches, parties and only positive emotions.

Bulgaria places 2 boys and 1 girl in the finals in Prague, and the World Tour continues its journey to the next stop!

Skateboarders from all around gathered for an exhilarating event as the “World Rookie Tour” and the “North German Championship” joined forces to create a thrilling contest!

While skateboarders up to the age of 19 were eligible to receive rankings for both competitions, older participants were only considered for the North German Championship. The contest not only determined the winners but also offered exciting opportunities for further advancement.

Taking place at the renowned Allerfornia Skatepark, operated by the esteemed TSG Bergedorf, the event attracted an enthusiastic crowd of approximately 200 spectators. The energy was palpable as skateboarding enthusiasts eagerly awaited the impressive displays of skill and talent that were about to unfold.

Allerfornia Beachclub, located adjacent to the skatepark, catered to the needs of the attendees, ensuring they were well-refreshed and fueled. With a range of beverages and delectable grilled food available, the spectators had all they needed to enjoy the thrilling competition.

The contest featured both qualifying rounds and a gripping finale. Each participant had two runs, lasting 60 seconds each, followed by the highly anticipated five best trick attempts. Throughout the competition, the skateboarders pushed the boundaries of what is possible, showcasing their creativity, technical prowess, and unique style.

In the overall rankings, Pasquale Zollino emerged as the top performer in the North German Championship, impressing the judges with his exceptional skills. As an older participant, Zollino’s performance solely contributed to his success in the North German Championship. His outstanding consistency and ability to execute remarkable tricks under pressure earned him well-deserved recognition.

In the under 19 category, Claudio Magno shone as a rising star, showcasing remarkable talent and earning the admiration of both fellow competitors and spectators. His impressive tricks, executed with precision and flair, secured him the first-place position among his peers.

The women’s category witnessed fierce competition, with Lisa Lomakin emerging as the standout performer. Her technical prowess, style, and ability to land difficult tricks consistently set her apart from the other female participants, earning her the title of the best female skateboarder in the contest.

In addition to the overall rankings, the contest also provided opportunities for further advancement. The top 10 participants in the North German Championship qualified for the finale—the German Championship—in Leipzig. This highly anticipated event would determine the ultimate national champion among the best skateboarders in the country.

Furthermore, the contest identified the top three performers in two age categories—16 and above, and 15 and below—as well as the best three female skateboarders.

Les Deux Alpes, France | Slopestyle, Snowboard

As flowers bloom in your backyard, the Black Yeti continues visiting snowy hot spots. Its next stop – understand the first stop of the 2023-2024 World Rookie Tour – will happen on the unique glacier of Les Deux Alpes in France. Located at around 3400 m high, the glacier is the inevitable spot for spring seshs and high-level riding. This is were the Spring Rookie Fest will take place. Down in the village, there’s so much to do at walking distance, whether in the skatepark, the swimming pool, the laser game, the summer sledge, or on the world-renown slopes of downhill mountain-biking.

What’s even more unique is that the Rookie Fest will be preceded by a 6-day long Spring Rookie Camp, which will give you the occasion to train, meet international bros and sis, get into the new season, and most importantly, get ready for the contest. As do the pros, the camp includes an exclusive Rookie Prime Line, where professional camera-people will make sure to get your best tricks in the box – just for you.

Come around and see by yourselves! The Spring Camp + Fest will host you in style, both during the camp, the contest and around. Various workshops will make it for riders’ cohesion and exchange, DJs and live music on snow, skateboard contest, and brands’ village where boards and more will be tested.

William Bostadlokken and Daisy Thomas are the World Rookie Freeski Champions 2023

World Rookie Freeski Finals 2023 is in the books after three action packed days at the amazing Ursus Snowpark in Madonna di Campiglio! The competition has always served as a breeding ground for progression in freestyle skiing.

Competition started off with the training on Monday while Tuesday qualification day showed a great level of riding, with the best condition of weather: sunny and blue sky. All the freeskiers had fun also during the afternoon activities. Thanks to the collaboration with the Gruppo Gamma and the ANFFAS Trentino Association, rookies participated at the Freestyle Academy’s gym and the art workshop, together with the disabled friends from Cremona e Trento.

Wednesday the contest ran with only a minor delay caused by strong winds. In men’s category, William Bostadlokken from Norway wrote his name in the World Rookie Tour Hall of Fame becoming the new World Rookie Freeski Champion with this stunning run: bio 900 japan, switch double cork 12 safety, double cork 1440 tail, backside 630 out, right side 270 out. William won in front of the compatriot Bendik Horgen Rasmussen and the Swiss Matis Crettenand.

On the women’s side, Daisy Thomas from Australia landed her best run: 540, switch 540 safety, 720, frontside 450 out, slide, and won in front of Anna Sklenarova (SUI) and Marta Silvestri (ITA).

In the Grom’s men category Melvin Seliberg (SWE) won with a cork 900 japan, switch dub 900 safety, double cork 1260 tail, cork 450 out, transfer front swap. Second place for Luke Harrold (NZL) and Giovanni Miotto (ITA).

William and Daisy won an invitation for Swatch Nines 2023, invitations to the Prime Session 2023, the Absolute Spring Battle 2024 and a ticket to the Rock ‘a’ Rail Contest.

Another great World Rookie Tour Freeski went down, a great success, a real and amazing mix of friendship, competition and fun. We must thank our partner for allowing this incredible show. We have to say this: nothing compared to World Rookie Tour’s events!

See you next year!
