Jib King 2019
December 14-15, 2019
Perfect conditions and top level riding at the first contest of the season at Absolut Park.
The contest season 2019/20 has started at Absolut Park with its iconic Jib King. What makes it so special is the fact that this event is open for everyone:
Freeskiers and snowboarders, girls and boys, ams and pros. They all have equal chances to get one of the treasured trophies and call themselves Jib King or Jib Queen.
Whilst the amateurs and masters had the whole Jib Park to shred, the Stair Set was reserved for the pros. The shapers did an amazing job, all obstacles were in mint condition and even the weather was playing along. What else could you wish for an event?
Amateur contest
On Saturday, it was time for the amateurs to shine, their playground being the whole Jib Park. Kids and Rookies also had their chance to show the adults how much they rip. The top four women and men also qualified for the pro contest on sunday.

Pro contest
On sunday, it was the pro's turn on the Absolut Park Stair Set and time for the masters (over 30) to shine in the Jib Park. The weather was even better, bluebird the whole day and happy faces everywhere. As on the day before, drinks were provided (thanks heaps to the Blue tomato crew!) and the music was pumping. Event speaker Henry Jackson was on point as ever, improving the already good vibe. The spectators were definitely given a perfect show.
