Mayrhofen, Austria, 4th February 2010: The level of the Skullcandy Sista Sessions Video Clip contest was incredibly high and after some careful deliberation the winner is.(drum rolls). Urška Pribošič from Slovenia. In her clip she showcased a banging frontside 720 and solid park riding skills. With her new pair of Skullcandy headphones and 100? in her pocket, Urška will be joining us at the Skullcandy Sista Sessions on the 13th of February 2010 at the Mayrhofen Vans Penken Park, Austria, for the Swatch TTR 3Star Slopestyle competition, to compete for the $2500USD prize purse and valuable TTR points.
Non-sponsored riders are in for a treat.
We are happy to announce that Billabong Girls will award the best unsponsored rider of the event with a 12 months clothing sponsorship, that could evolve into a full sponsorship, giving the lucky girl a once in a lifetime opportunity. The top amateur will also be invited to join the invited riders on a photo shoot on Sunday 14.02.10.

Les Ettes will be bringing us a photo exhibition on the snow from the renowned female photographer Christa Leonard, who grew up in the mountains and whose Analog photos show lifestyle in both a nostalgic and curious form. In the chillout area all participants will be able to swap their Skullcandy headphones earpiece designs, enjoy the VANS waffles and design & print their own Billabong T-shirts. While the judges deliberate we will meet for a hot chocolate-fuelled catch-up after a great day of riding, where you will have a chance to meet and learn about women working in the snowboarding industry.
