Ana Rumina Victorious At European Nikita Chickita ‘08

Around this time last year Ana Rumina of Croatia came close to standing on the winners podium finishing 4th place in the finals but this year she was the clear winner with a nice smooth run with consisting of a backside 180, frontside 360 indy, and a frontside 360 on the wall, not to mention she being the only boarder to do something off the tree.  Not only did she win first place, she also earned herself 1,000 Euros and a coveted Nikita contract for one year.

“I think I first found out about Nikita Chickita on the Internet last year and four of my friends were ready to go straight away. Last year’s contest was the most fun one I’ve ever been on, so I decided to come back again this year” Ana said. 

“Nikita Chickita is still my favorite contest. I wouldn’t even call it a contest, it’s more like a gathering for the girls who want to have fun, ride and show each other what’s new in the female snowboard world.”
