Mel Simmons named as Partner Relationship Manager at TTR

Snowboarding veteran and long-time judge Mel Simmons from New Zealand will join TTR’s team in the Munich office in the newly created role as Partner Relationship Manager. In this position she will be the point person for World Snowboard Tour operations as well as coordinate the relationships with TTR’s key partners: events, riders and industry. Many of her responsibilities she will take over from Fabia Grüebler, who decided to leave TTR after more than three years as Tour Director.

TTR President Reto Lamm:
„First of all I would like to thank Fabia for the great work she has done in the past three years to develop the Tour. She has truly made an impact and has also become the face of the tour to the riders and events. Leading the tour restructuring over the last two years and establishing better relationships with the event organizers and the riders through supporting the setup of the Global Snowboarders Alliance (GSA) from TTR’s side were her major achievements. With the tour development continuing we decided to create a new role, that is dedicated to managing relationships with all key stakeholders of the tour. We are thrilled to get Mel on board with the World Snowboard Tour. Not only has she a deep passion and understanding of the sport, but she is also highly respected within the community through her work as a judge at major events and her pivotal role in the setup of the GSA. Through her position as Tour Coordinator for the Southern Hemisphere events in 2011/ 2012, she has a connection to our organization that goes way back.“

The park shapers up at Betterpark Hintertux had the new snow under control and tuned the fresh into shape. On Saturday the Ästhetiker coaches were shredding park together with an ambitious crew of up-and-coming kids that were hyped to learn from the masters.

On top of that, Ride Snowboards had their latest snowboards and bindings available for free demo all weekend long.

The sun showed it´s face just in time for the start of the open slopestyle contest on Sunday. There were sixty snowboarders of all age groups and riding levels hitting the park. Mini groms, rookies, girls and men were represented and put on a great show of style and creativity. All the riders ripped the same setup for prize money, snowboards and bindings from Ride, plus gear from Vans Streetwear, GoPro and SP Gagdets tools. All riders stacked their first points for the Zillertal Välley Rälley overall tour ranking.

Big congratulations to all who participated! It was Christoph Lechner from Germany that won the grom boys category while the Belgian girl Evy Poppe took the victory in the grom girls contest. German ripper Tobi Gruenwald took the top spot on the rookie podium and the Queen of the Välley 2014 and Ride Snowboards team rider Martina Zollner won the women´s category.

Good times riding with your friends, new or old!

Sarah Moser, marketing manager Hintertuxer Gletscher about the first Välley Rälley tour stop: ”One metre of fresh snow just two days before the start of the 2nd Zillertal Välley Rälley hosted by Ride Snowboards have been a challenge for our shapers! But just in time for the Coaching Day, the park was ready on all five lines and the great number of motivated riders obviously had a lot of fun on the new setup!”

The Betterpark Hintertux will be open and maintained daily with the XXL setup until December 2014. XXL actually means five park lines equaling one kilometer of shred fun with more than thirty perfectly shaped jib obstacles and 8 jumps for all riding levels.

WST/WSF EU Judge Forum 2014

The World Snowboard Tour (WST) and The World Snowboard Federation (WSF) would like to invite you to The WST/WSF EU Judge Forum in Munich, Germany from December 12th to 14th 2014.

monaco-di-baviera

The Forum serves an education and collaboration environment that brings together snowboard judges of all levels of competition from regional to pro level, as well as coaches, riders, event organizers, and national snowboarding association (NSA) representatives who are interested in their personal progression in, and the future progression of, snowboard judging.
The Forum will address the current status of snowboard judging and judge education in relation to the tours, the events, and rider progression, and how best to support that progression and prepare the next generation of judges for the coming competition seasons.

Broken into two sessions, National and International Pro-Level, each session is tailored to a specific learning and collaborative environment relevant to the level of competition, its judges are qualified to attend.

National Judge Session – Two days: Dec 12th & 13th
International Pro-Level Judge Session – One day: Dec 14th

Registration for both sessions closes December 1st, 2014.

ABOUT THE SESSIONS
National Level Session (Basics) – Open Attendance
The National Session is geared towards entry to intermediate amateur level events at Regional and National level (formerly WST 1-3Star level). Focus is on judging and judge training and outlines Head Judge responsibilities. It also includes training regarding safety and running of freestyle events, as well as judging systems and formats. During the format section the SLS will also be covered as well as a brief introduction to the new WST 2.0 Halfpipe system. The clinic includes a test component that consists of video judging and theory.

By completing the test at National Judge Session, participants are awarded a “WST/WSF National C Judge” level certification – allowing them to judge at Regional and National level events.
Once a Judge fulfills the criteria laid out in the attached document, and attends the required Judging Session, higher levels of certification will be awarded, up to “WST National B Judge” level.
National level judges must attend both days in order to receive certification, and must attend a WST/WSF Judge Forum once every two years to maintain their active status.

International Pro Level Judge Session – Closed Attendance

Entry criteria:
– International Pro Judge Certified; or
– WST/WSF A Level Judge Certified; or
– WST/WSF National B Judge Certified on recommendation by the WSF or their NSA (max. 1 per nation, must provide a
Letter of Recommendation from either the WSF or the NSA Judge Director); or
– Judges, Coaches, Event or Rider representatives – by WST invite only.

Designed to encourage discussion and collaboration among high-level judges and attendees, the Pro Session will focus on new trick recognition, new judge systems, formats and structures, as well as skills in other areas required by high-level events such as large field sizes, progressive formats, working with live-scoring, TV production, Event and Rider relations, and Head Judge strategies.

Focus will also be on the introduction of the new WST 2.0 Halfpipe Judging System that will be implemented at the Elite Level events on the 2014/2015 WST Pro Series this season.
This year’s Pro Session contains a learning and education component, followed by a test component.

By attending the International Pro-Level Judge Session and fulfilling the criteria, participants will receive a “WST A Level Judge” certification – allowing them to be eligible to judge at International Level events (formerly WST 4 and 5Star events) and Head Judge at Regional and National level.

Once a “WST A Level Judge” certification is attained, a Judge is then certified to train judges in their region, in cooperation with their NSA affiliation. This education must be based on the provided WST Snowboard Judge Education material and a maximum of a “National C Judge” certification may be awarded at National level. Once a “National C Judge” judge fulfills the criteria, they will be awarded the “National B Judge” certification by WST.

Once the judges, or the NSA they are affiliated with, can prove judged events at International Pro Level, and they have fulfilled the criteria, and shown strong leadership and judging skills, they will receive the “WST International PRO Judge” certification – allowing them to be eligible to judge Elite Level events, and Head Judge International Level events.

WSF Banked Slalom Tour

WSF introduces one of the new features of the upcoming season; presenting a Banked Slalom Tour, aimed to span from a side of a continent to the other, an international tour based on the true spirit of snowboarding.

banked

Banked slalom combines the roots of snowboarding, surfing and skateboarding.

The past and the future meet in the banked slalom, the original discipline from where everything started. The WSF Banked Slalom Tour concept is to offer a platform and network within currently existing events and support to create new events. Banked slalom is an easy way to bring more attention to snowboarding, from the media to new consumers: it is an all-ages discipline, a low risk sport and people have a lot fun competing in contests that do not require professional skills.

WSF invites all national associations that already have a banked slalom contest on their schedule to be part of the tour and fill out the attached application form to participate.

WSF also invite all of you to organize a BS contest and get support from us on how to do it. We will give technical support to those who have never organized a BS event, but WSF will also support the pr and communication for those events that are already planned for the season 2014/15.

Please read the attached presentation and don’t hesitate to contact Meini, WSF event coordinator (events@worldsnowboardfederation.org)
