Unfortunately due to weather conditions, unfavourable conditions leading up to the event and the safety of competitors, Thredbo Resort has decided to cancel the event for 2016.
We would like to thank Capita, Union, Pow Gloves, Mizu and RedBull for their support with this event.
If you dream to become a professional snowboarder, then your future starts from Rookie Fest!
The Australian Rookie Fest is back for 2016 at Thredbo with a great prize pool including a free total ticket to the 2017 World Rookie Fest Finals in Austria, as well as the ticket to flight over there! With all the young riders coming off an epic Northern Hemisphere season, we are excited to see what these Rookies have up their sleeves, maybe even enough to turn themselves Pro.
Antons Terrain Park is ready to host the best young riders from all over the world, so if your aged 15 to 17 or 14 years and younger, come see if you have what it takes to be the Australian Rookie Fest Champion!
