Video Style Wars 2008
Australia’s premier on-snow festival and 4-Star TTR World Tour Snowboarding Event is back for 2009 in its winter home of Falls Creek, Victoria. The event will again showcase daily the very best in freestyle snowboarding action combined with nightly top shelf music acts open for all of the public on 24 – 28 AUGUST
Past Stylewars festivals have featured moments that have both taken the professional snowboarding world by storm as well as the music media. Ranging from the biggest snowboarding jump ever built in competition anywhere on the planet, to live music acts like The Presets, Airbourne, Katalyst, Bliss N Eso, Scribe and The Galvatrons.
This snowboarding event will again feature a three-day event over a four-day competition window, with two hours of daily continuous jam format action on a massive featured course designed specifically for the event. Also included in the Stylewars event is the night street rail jam event under lights, known as ‘28 Stairs’ held in the Village bowl outside The Frying Pan. This is a highlight of the week’s action as it aligns both the snowboarding action and the music crowds, and the party continues for everyone long into the night.
Last year’s Stylewars winner, Charles Reid from Quebec, Canada, claimed, “Stylewars is the best format event on the tour. After three days you are pretty tired, but you really get to try your best tricks and have fun riding the park. You get pushed by your friends to try harder tricks and the level gets pushed each day, for sure.”
This year’s music line up includes some of the world’s best hip hop crews, soul musicians and turntablists featuring Koolism, Steve Spacek, Ru C.L and Katalyst with Space Invadas, Mr Rex and S1 as well as Motley and the Australian DMC champion DJ Perplex.
