The 2015 South America Rookie Fest

With the participation of the best rookies of Chile, Argentina and Brasil, and the invited World Grom Champion in charge Wendelin Gauger, another great edition of this unique event went on. The rookies enjoyed an amazing life experience meeting new friends from different countries, learning different cultures and living the true boardsports lifestyle.

After the competition a sick skate session went down in the Mall Sport skatepark, right after a super fun sesh in the Artificial Wave of the Mall, and thanks to Santa Pizza a dinner for all the talented, young riders, future stars of the chilean snowboard scene, ended the night.

But there is more. Some of the invited riders joined the World Grom Champion for a snowboard, surf and skate trip around Chile.

There’s nothing better than seeing those kids having a great time and enjoying all the activities of the event. The rookies also had the opportunity to share some time with the snowboard legend Bryan Iguchi and the pro snowboarder Tomi Materi from Argentina, they will never forget the time and things they learned from this experience.
