Nine Queens
Snow
Held in the resort of Serfaus-Fiss-Ladis
in Austria, the 2015 Nine Queens event
went down in history as one of the most
progressive female snow sessions of all
time. The mix of super talented skiers and
snowboarders from all over the world
created a whirlpool of adrenaline, and
a total of four new tricks were landed
and documented during the week. The
highlights edit from the week was one of
the coolest all-female session videos we’ve
ever seen.
