Nine Queens Set up looking sick!

im not getting paid to do be a pro skier. if i was, and i had the talent that they supposedly have, I would be busting my ass tryin to get dubs, or progress myself, rather than settling for the same old, same old. I'd love to be a fan of womens freeskiing, but right now its pretty hard
 
yea not really.

Really crisp set up, but it is a shame it gets so under utilized.

A couple of the tricks were nice looking, but 3s and 5s... on that... in 2011...

????????????????????????????
 
Not really, it somewhat proved them. That jumps gap is 40ft, max. i guess im not surprised.
 
Word, my Buddy just decided he wanted to be pro this year. He had never done an invert prior and had some old 166 twin tips. Long story short hes throwin Dubs with clean style, If these girls want to claim their operating at a "pro" level. They better start fuckin hucking for it.
 
Ashley Battersby threw switch 9s, Maude Raymond did rodeos, Kim Lamarre did sw 7s..id say this event was just what womens skiing needed!
 
yes this is exactly what they need to do, it's a time for them to express themself without the presure of competing against each other, I think with events like this the women will progress much faster. as Virginie Faivre says:

“It is an amazing opportunity that most freeskiing women have been dreaming of! The ski industry is full of great events which are for the guys only, though. Suzuki Nine Queens finally is a girl dedicated event. We will get the chance to have the full media attention and the best riding conditions to show the freeskiing world how hard we are ripping. All that will happen at an especially designed obstacle, the “chateau”, which will allow the girls to push their limits and to progress our sport. Nine Queens is going to offer us the perfect environment to bring female freeskiing to the next level! I am very excited and proud to host this great event and I am really looking forward to it.

Bravo Virginie for putting it together
 
a shame they're going to have to destroy that beautiful setup after it gets covered in period blood

The Suzuki NINE QUEENS made history: Maria Bagge won the big air contest in front of Kaya Turski – both landing the first ever switch 1080s in women’s freeskiing!
