NIKITA CHICKITA EUROPE 2010

WEDNESDAY, 10 MARCH 2010

With just over a month to go, we’re already looking forward to Nikita Chickita Europe 2010. The date was set a while back now and lest you forget, make sure the 10th April 2010 is fully penned in your diaries! Last year’s event was rocking thanks to an assortment of characters and nationalities who made the trip to compete, judge, ride and made it what it was.

Nikita Chickita is a chilled out and friendly all-girls slopestyle snowboard contest. An open invitation allowing both unknown and established riders of all ages to bust out their moves on the mountain during the day and party like there’s no tomorrow at night!

The contest is split into womens and juniors who compete in qualifying rounds before the best are chosen to battle it out in the finals. Juniors placing 1st, 2nd and 3rd will be awarded with a full to the brim goodie bag, whilst in the womens contest, the winner rides away with a one-year Nikita sponsorship. Stuffed goodie bags along with €1000 for 1st, €500 for 2nd and €250 for 3rd also await the top three women. Last year Sweden’s Cecilia Larsen had a triumphant win at the first Nikita Chickita Norway event, which meant as part of her prize she got to compete at Nikita Chickita Europe – she succeeded there too and victory was hers along with a one-year sponsorship with Nikita.
