6th Zillertal VÄLLEY RÄLLEY hosted by Ride Snowboards - New Schedule for 2018/2019

During the last five years, the Zillertal VÄLLEY RÄLLEY has been established as a landmark in the European snowboarding scene. „Our main goal is to provide a platform for up-and-coming talent while sharing the stoke for snowboarding with young guns and motivated shred heads of all riding levels“ snowboard legend and Ästhetiker president Steve Gruber explains. „With the VÄLLEY RÄLLEY we have been supporting a vast numbers of riders on their journey to becoming a professional snowboarder. Even some actual Olympians have used our grassroots tour to make it to the top of international podiums.“

Boardsports fans can look forward to four action-packed weekends of snowboarding. All events will offer freebie freestyle coachings with the Ästhetiker pros at the best snow parks of the Zillertal. Ride Snowboards will have the latest snowboards and bindings available for free demo/testing at all stages. The Limbo RIDE fun contest is all about keeping it low under the bar and taking home great prizes. Riders of all nations and age groups will raise that bar during the open slopestyle competitions and podium winners will be taking home medals, prizes and prize money. To top it off, the best trick at each event will be honored with a special prize from Billabong.

Every contest result will accumulate points for the Zillertal VÄLLEY RÄLLEY overall ranking. The overall Royal Zillertal VÄLLEY RÄLLEY 2019 winners of each catagory will be rewarded at the fourth and final stage on Hintertux Glacier. Riders that participate in the tour will also be collecting points for the International World Snowboard Point List (WSPL). The points from the first three VÄLLEY RÄLLEY events are counting for the n.ASA (New Austrian Snowboard Association) Austriacups, while the riders with the most Austriacup points will finally be crowned Austrian Slopestyle Masters 2019. With the results from the first three stages, the best man, woman and rookies can also qualify for the Austrian Masters Slopestyle Finals. On top of all this, the rookies will collect points in the World Rookie Ranking to qualify for the World Rookie Finals. More info at http://www.powdern.com
