Thredbo Resort is thrilled to announce that MOOKi’s Mini Pipe Cup, presented by 4 X World Champion, Scotty James, will return on Saturday, 23 August, for athletes aged 7 to 17 years. This exciting, family-friendly event is designed to inspire junior shredders and nurture the next generation of Australian winter sports talent.
Held at Australia’s only 13-foot halfpipe, MOOKi’s Mini Pipe Cup is made possible thanks to Scotty James’ generous donation of a mini pipe cutter prior to last years inaugural event. The event features a high-energy jam session format, where young snowboarders ride alongside Thredbo’s newest ambassador, Scotty James, building essential halfpipe skills in a fun, encouraging, and community-focused environment.
