The Uninvited Euro Open: Paving the Way for Street Snowboarding's Rising Stars
Last weekend, the Uninvited Euro Open 2025 went down in Mayrhofen, Austria, and once again, it proved why this event is so important for women’s streetstyle snowboarding. The event evolved from a qualifier to a full Open format, raising the level of competition and bringing together 59 riders from across Europe and Scandinavia. The goal? Progression, community, and a shot at an invite to The Uninvited Invitational in the USA.

Next Level Riding & Standout Moments
The Qualifying Jam set the stage, with riders battling for a spot in the Finals Jam, where the level of riding reached new heights.
Taking first place was Emma Lacarrère (FRA), whose impressive trick selection secured her the win. At only 14 years old, Marie Kuhlman (GER) stunned the crowd and judges alike, earning a well-deserved second place. Rounding out the podium, Sophia Schroll (AUT) brought her signature style and consistency, locking in her spot for The Uninvited Invitational at Woodward Park City, USA.

But it wasn’t just the podium finishers who stood out. The event also awarded:
- Best Trick – Maija Hokkanen (FIN) with a frontside creeper transfer backboard
- The Heart Award – Anna Lindsdottir (SWE) for her fearless riding
- Best Slam – Zoi Roffi (FRA) for going all-in, pushing her limits
More Than a Contest – A Real Community
Snowboarding is about way more than just competition, and the Uninvited Community Ride Day proved exactly that. Jess Kimura and Paula Benito spent the day riding, teaching, and hyping up everyone who came out to session. With CAPiTA and Union Binding Co. offering demos, and the setup at Grillhof Alm, the whole vibe was all about progression and good times.
What’s Next?
With The Uninvited Euro Open 2025 wrapped, the top three finishers are now heading to the Uninvited Invitational finals in the USA, where they’ll compete for a $60,000 USD prize purse and global recognition. Women’s streetstyle snowboarding in Europe is thriving, and The Uninvited continues to give riders the space they deserve to push the sport forward.
