It’s amazing to think that NIKITA CHICKITA after five years of growing success, are still one of the most unique snowboarding competitions in the world. You know and I know why it’s unique. Because (without sounding sexist) those girls ripping on their snowboards is damn sexy! I love a woman who can take command of any situation; hot cold, blizzard, rain, sleet, aliens. And the 2009 Nikita Chickita event will be no exception. We will see some of the most talented females of all ages and all disciplines strap a board on and make things happen.
The slopestyle competition will be taking place in Mammoth’s Unbound South Park on Saturday, February 21st. The forecast is looking good and hopefully have Mother Nature on human’s side again this year with great snow and sunshine for the contest. I think we all know that Mother Nature owes it to us. We’ve been nothing but RESPECTFUL to her.
Online registration is still open so sign up before the kick-off date, February 21st, is upon us - HERE. Last year’s winners Isabelle Lalive (Pro) and Alice Gong (Am) had an amazing time taking part, both on and off the slopes. It’s a great time and all the girls really encourage each other. Nikita team riders Magalie DuBois, Vera Janssen, Gabby Maiden, Femke Henriques, Madison Blackley and more will be in attendance at this coming Chickita event.
Skilled judges will be watching out for rider’s use of features, ability and style. There will be plenty of opportunity to show your flair and creativity at this comp!
The day will go as follows:
8:00 – 9:30 am Registration in Roma’s Room (level 3 Main Lodge)
10:30 am Rider’s Meeting top of South Park
11:00 am Game on ladies!
