After the success of the first edition, World Rookie Tour Skateboard returns to Modena
the appointment is from 16 until 18 September!
Modena is ready to host for the second year in a row, a stop of the World Rookie Tour Skateboard, the tour designed to give aspiring pro-skaters the chance to break into the international scene. In fact, on 18 September, the best skaters on the Italian and international scene will compete at the Rock & Ride Skatepark, the largest indoor park in Emilia Romagna.
As in WRT tradition, the winner of the Modena Rookie Fest will be awarded with an incredible prize money: an all-inclusive invitation for the World Rookie Skateboard Finals scheduled in Innsbruck, Austria, and many other prizes made available by the sponsors of the event including DC, TSG, Jail Jam, SKIPASS, Blue Tomato and SurfToLive.
“World Rookie Tour events are not just skateboarding competitions. WRT includes lifestyle activities, artistic workshops, skateboarding courses and a guided tour of the historic center of Modena and in the Enzo Ferrari Casa Museum” Marco Sampaoli, co-founder of the World Rookie Tour and Rock & Ride skatepark in Modena.
In addition, all the skaters who will get on the podium in Modena, for each category, will be qualified for the World Rookie Skateboard Finals 2022 which will be held from 30 September to 2 October 2022 in Austria. Here, important wild cards for the World Rookie Champion Skateboard will be awarded: an invitation to the legendary Simple Session 2023, and 12 invitations for the Mystic Cup 2023!
“In addition to having the best Pro-skaters from all over the world at our event, we have always had a special focus on new talent. For example, Madars Apse was 13 when he participated and is now an international pro. We can say that Simple Session is a real launch pad for young and talented skaters! ” Jarmo Kangro, co-manager Simple Session skateboarding, partner event of the World Rookie Tour and one of the most important European contests.
