First class contest, new beats and fresh powder for the 2nd stage at Zillertal Arena.

With international riders and a great load of fresh snow, the 2nd stage of the Billabong presents: Zillertal Välley Rälley hosted by Ride Snowboards took over the Zillertal Arena on January 20th and 21st, 2018. While the Actionpark Kreuzwiese showed off with a great setup for Austria's most popular Snowboard Amateur Series on the Contest Day, all participants of the Coaching Day were delighted to swap park laps for powder runs after a great overnight load of fresh snow in the Zillertal Arena. Local band´s lead singer Klaus Frankhauser from Sempre Caoz joined the action with his guitar for some unique gondola sessions, presenting his brand-new Välley Rälley song. Andreas MonEpic Monsberger captured all the highlights for you in moving pictures, goosebumps guaranteed below.

After the forecast had predicted a great load of fresh snow for the 2nd stage of the Billabong presents: Zillertal Välley Rälley hosted by Ride Snowboards, the Ästhetiker decided to hold the contest on Saturday. This turned out to be a good decision. Despite their busy contest schedules, more than seventy riders showed up for the contest and the startlist counted some big names of the European rookie elite. Strong teams were raising the bar once again at Zillertal Arena.

It was Bulgarian styler Simeon Mitrev, who took victory in the men's contest with great style. Marino Kristjansson from Team Iceland won the Billabong Best Trick Award with a stylisch ''BS Tailslide 450 out.'' His team buddy Baldur Vilhelmsson claimed the gold medal in the Rookie Boys category. Once again, british super talent Gabe appeared unbeatable, defending his top spot on the Gom Boys podium. Lenny Fenning, also from Team Great Britain, was happy to finally score his first ever win in the Super Grom Boys class. In the Ladies contest, Nici John from Germany climbed the podium in first place, while Luca-Mai Lane Hopkins (GBR) became Rookie Girls winner and Marie Kreisingerova (CZE) was happy about her first place in the Grom Girls category. Amber Fennell from Team GBR finally earned herself another gold medal in the Super Grom Girls class and got rewarded ''Most impressive Grom of the dÄy'' coming along with a lot of fame, glory and prize money.

As predicted, the weatherman delivered a great load of white gold in the night to Sunday. With pleasure, the coaching participants swapped park laps for powder runs all across the Zillertal Arena. As special guest, Klaus Fankhauser, lead singer from the local band Sempre Caoz, joined the crew on Sunday and presented his brand-new Välley Rälley song  ''Living Sideways'' in a first-class gondola session.

Heike Schoof from Marketing Zillertal Arena is delighted about the outcome: ''The annual Zillertal Välley Rälley is always a pleasure for us! Despite challenging weather conditions, we look back at another well-organised weekend with a great number of happy participants.''

With the results from the second out of four tourstops, the Välley Rälley overall rankings will change again and every single point counts fort he overall win. All Välley Rälley events further count as N.ASA (New Austrian Snowboard Association) Austriacups and for every participation, riders collect valuable points in the World Snowboard Tour Ranking.
