2nd QParks Snowboard Tour Stop, 07/01/2017, Snowpark Schöneben, Schöneben/Italy. For seven years the QParks Snowboard Tour has been supporting ambitious young shredders on their path to their pro career - the “Battle ROjal” in Schöneben at Reschenpass has been a part of it for the last six years. Thanks to an international team of professional judges and a cash price and goodies worth a staggering 1.200€, exciting contest atmosphere at the Snowpark Schöneben is guaranteed, when it’s time for numerous young riders to compete against each other in a royal battle once again.

The early season setup at the Snowpark Schöneben is already shredable and park designer Moritz Klammer and his crew are working nonstop to add more and more obstacles. Because on January 7th 2017 it’s time for the QParks Snowboard Tour to return to the Reschenpass! Competitors in the categories Men, Women and Groms are looking forward to a topnotch slopestyle setup that offers each rider plenty of possibilities to lay down their most stylish and creative runs.

For years the QParks Snowboard Tour has been holding the title for the most professional amateur series in the entire Alpine area, with the main focus on supporting up-and-coming young riders. Once again the Battle ROjal will certainly live up to the QPark Snowboard Tour’s reputation and attract the attention of many snowboarders thanks to a princely cash price and various goodies by Amplifi, QParks and Pinetime Clothing worth a total of about 1.200€. The starting fee isn’t as hefty as the cash price, though. Actually it’s 0,00€ - hence, participation is totally free! There’ll also be free catering for all the competitors, so that the riders can recharge their energy reserves in between the runs! And here’s one more thing: As with all Italian contests, the participants are also obliged to wear a helmet at the “Battle ROjal”.

Rankings, Cups & Points

The loyalty of the competitors will be rewarded once again: Apart from the essential QParks Snowboard Tour points, there’s also the chance to collect points for the WSPL Ranking of the World Snowboard Tour and the World Rookie Rank.

The prize is a VIP Invitation for one of the upcoming tour stops including lift tickets and accommodation for two persons. The voters won’t be left empty handed as well - Pinetime Clothing will draw a cool package among them, which will also include the new HiRise Hoodie. Join the voting and vote for Kevin!
