SNOWBOARD RESULTS LE GRAND BORNAND
Snowboard Boys under 16 Number Surname Name G/R Best Run Ranking
Last weekend the best Austrian freestyle snowboarders again fought it out for the crown at the „Shred Down Austrian Masters“, the national snowboard championships in Innsbruck/Nordkette.
Mostly it was all about having fun but the main goal of the riders was to bring home the title of the Austrian halfpipe master at the official Austrian freestyle championships. During a bluebird day the spectators saw snowboarding at the highest level on the Nordkette in Innsbruck.
Big names of the local and international snowboard scene were present and they showed breathtaking and spectacular tricks. Special highlight was the legends ranking. Past winners and additional famous faces such as Max Plötzeneder, Paul Burger and Andi Zierhut battled the young chaps.
Like last year the tyrolean Stefan Falkeis became Austrian halfpipe master ahead of Clemens Schattschneider and Simon Krall. Julia Baumgartner was able to repeat her last year’s victory and remains the Austrian halfpipe queen. Clemens Schattschneider placed second in the overall ranking and won the rookie title. Jocki Köffler became fourth overall and won the legends ranking ahead of the Swiss snowboard legend Pascal Imhof.
The beautiful weather, der chilled atmosphere and the performences of the riders made the Shred Down Austrian Masters Superpipe competition special and unique.
The Shred Down Austrian Masters event (TTR 3* event) is a combination of a superpipe and a slopestyle competition. This weekend the slopestyle competition will take place (March 4th-6th) in the Boarders Playground in Westendorf. Apart from the title decisions there will be much more on offer in Westendorf, for example the legendary Shred Down Party in the Alpenrosensaal with the Dj A.Skillz from England and with the famous local Dj Busy Fingaz is taking place on March the 6th.
A.Skillz’s reputation as a true party rocker has won him prime-time slots across the world at a who’s who of major events, festivals and music industry parties. Busy Fingaz is a member of the famous Wax Wreckaz dj-crew. For over 10 years he inspires with a mix of hip hop, booty bass and electro. So you can look forward to this two exceptional djs. They will burn down the dance floor!

With high level snowboarding seen from the 67 riders gathered from all over the world, it was the talented rookies Gjermund Braaten (NOR) who grabbed second place and Roope Tonteri (FIN) who took third. The biggest climber in the TTR Ranking, with a 5th place is Janne Korpi (FIN) who now sits in World No. 4. All of today’s top ten riders who have not yet received an invitation or wildcard will compete in Friday’s straight jump format, the Burn River Jump.
Perfect Conditions at the Mottolino Park Today’s event saw the guys rock the perfectly shaped Mottolino park in the beautiful APT Livigno and SkiPassion Snow-Ski Area. Willett’s winning run included a Switch Backside 1260, Frontside Double Cork 1080 and a Backside Double Rodeo, which scored him miles ahead of his opponents. Collecting another great result this season, he has moved up the Swatch TTR world ranking list into No.11 and with tomorrow’s format he has lined himself up in an excellent position to move into the Top 10.
With his 2nd place today, Gjermund entered the Swatch TTR Top 10 and now sits in World No. 9. He was content with his performance and was measuring up his chances to move into the Top 5. “The jumps were perfect and I had a good feeling…It would be a dream come true for me to be in the TTR Top 5. I got one more contest tomorrow, so we will see how that goes. But just being in the Top 10 is so great.”
Straight Air Format Brings A Night Spectacle to Livigno The second 5Star format, the straight air,will take place in the center of Livigno on Friday evening, where the contestants will be jumping over the Spoel river.

The snowy slopes of Mayrhofen, Austria glimmered in the sunshine as 50 girls from thirteen different countries gathered for the Skullcandy Sista Sessions.
In one action-packed day the participants could join in on various activities: beginner lessons, small jam sessions and photo shoots, while the main focus was on the 3Star Swatch TTR Slopestyle competition. It was 19-year old up and coming ripper from Slovenia Urška Pribošič who deservedly took the top spot on the podium, while local Zillertal girl Chirstina “Tini” Gruber came in second and Claire Frost (GBR) in third. The title of best non-sponsored rider and a one-year clothing sponsorship with Billabong Girls went to the delighted Argentinean Chani Michaux who placed 13th.
The Vans Penken Park was groomed to perfection and consisted of two sets of rails and boxes, an 11m kicker followed by a 14m kicker. Urska’s super stylish winning run started off with a 50/50 on the top rail, a backside boardslide to frontside boardslide on the flat down box, then a huge backside 360 tailgrab on the Billabong kicker and a frontside 540 on the Skullcandy kicker that sealed her victory. Riding against some of Europe’s top-notch riders like Liza Filzmoser (AUT) and Basa Stevulova (SVK), Urška was happy and overwhelmed by her win “I can’t believe it because all the girls were riding so good. I’m stoked!” She had made her way to the invite list by winning the Skullcandy Sista Sessions Video Clip Contest, so a double victory for Urška!
Tini, who finished closely in second showed her skills on her home stomping ground with a backside boardslide to fakie and a 270 frontboard in the rail section to a big frontside 360 and stylish a backside 540 on the kickers. Claire nailed a solid run consisting of a frontside boardslide, gap 50/50, front side 360 melon grab and a huge backside 360. The happy top 5 riders all walked away with cheques and a pair of brand new Skullcandy headphones. The riding seen in the park impressed Head Judge Nina Rydelek, “We had a very good level on both rails and kickers. The girls really pushed each other to try 720’s, we have a good rookie winner and all the girls who went through the qualification really stepped it up against the invited riders.” The top 3 girls won a place on the invited riders list of the 3Star Oakley Girlsessions in Ruka, Finland from 8-11 April 2010, while the top 5 are invited to the 3Star Shred Down Austrian Masters. The Skullcandy Sista Sessions stayed true to its roots and included all levels of girls snowboarding with pro and the up-and-coming riders side by side. Also the beginners had the chance to learn all sorts of basic tricks with the guiding hand of the local SMT Snowboard School in the “Sweet Dream – Newbie Zone” and afterwards showed off their newly learned skills winning armfuls of prizes during the beginner box jam session. One of the stars of the day was 7-year old Annika Morgen (AUT), who was the youngest participant of the day and was killing it!
The busy chill zone featured a Christa Leonard photo exhibition brought to us by our sponsor Les Ettes and the popular waffle stand from Vans. Finally a “Hot chocolate Box Jam Session”, presented by Billabong, ended the day in style. We would like to thank all the girls who made the Skullcandy Sista Sessions a true success, not only by taking part in the competition, but also by creating such a friendly atmosphere, and pushing each other to progress. Big thanks goes out to our sponsors who made the event possible: Skullcandy, Mayrhofner Bergbahnen, Billabong Girls, Vans, Les Ettes, Sweet Dream and SMT Snowboard School. Watch out for our media partner magazine Cooler where you can soon read about the event and see exclusive photos! Video from the Skullcandy Sista Sessions will be online shortly on www.sistasessions.com while photos are already up the Sista Sessions Facebook Fan Page! Upload your photos of the day to the Fan Page and you may be one of the lucky winners of the “best photo” competition for the public.
