Penken Battle 2020
Slopestyle’s coming home!
16.01.2020

On February 1, 2020, freestyle returns to one of its cradles in Europe – the Penken Park in Mayrhofen. Penken Battle is the second stop of the QParks Tour and promises absolutely decent contest action for freeskiers and snowboarders.

February starts out extra fine in the Zillertal valley when the QParks Tour stops by at Penken Park to launch a massive slopestyle contest. In the categories Men, Women and Groms, freeskiers and snowboarders will shred jibs and kickers for cash and goodies worth €1.600 in total.

And as usual, professional judges will decide on who will take home the prize money and the sweet stuff from Amplifi, the Mayrhofner Bergbahnen, QParks and Pow. With international experience, they will judge the runs of the riders and care for a fair contest. Whoever shows the Best Trick in his sport gets €100 and the chance to win a surf holiday at the Free Spirit Hostel Ecuador.

 

 

Rankings and Points

However, the riders do not only shred for cash and goodies but also for important points in different rankings. All snowboarders score points for the QParks Tour, the World Snowboard Points List as well as the World Rookie Rank. The freeskiers get points for the overall ranking of the QParks Tour, the TSV-Cup as well as the ÖSV Freestyle Ranking.

Snacks, Drinks and Registration for free

Like every year, the Penken Battle cares not only for a professional setting for all riders but also for free snacks and drinks. And for all who do not know it: Registration is free too! Yep, you heard that right. You get pro judges, a rad setup, catering, goodies, cash and all that doesn’t cost you a single cent!
