Twelve years of Zillertal VÄLLEY RÄLLEY under the auspices of the local snowboard club ‘Die Aesthetiker.’ The VÄLLEY RÄLLEY offers young athletes a platform to measure their skills against their peers and qualify for further competitions. The event series thus serves as a springboard for young snowboarders into international professional sport. Many formerly very young talents who won their first medal at the Välley Rälley are now at the top of the international competition circuit and won their first medals at the Olympics. The competitions are held in the Olympic discipline ‘Snowboard Slopestyle’ and are linked to the international point systems of the ‘World Snowboard Point List’ and the ‘World Rookie Ranking’. In addition, young people under the age of 18 can qualify for the World Rookie Tour Finals every year. All tour stops further count as recognized Austria Cups of the Austrian Snowboard Association.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><strong>New tour dates 2025/2026</strong></div><div style="text-align: justify;">The Zillertal VÄLLEY RÄLLEY 2025/2026 starts again in December.
