Rookie of the Year sponsor 2009

Rookie of the year sponsors for 2009 needed!
ConeRacing.com kind of invented this award years back to create some excitement around the ISSA World Ranking and for the newbies coming into this sport. The first one coincided with the first issue of Naphte magazine, and we ran a full page ad to promote this award in that very first issue.
ConeRacing usuall gave away USD 300 to the Rookie in the Pro division and cash or skate equipment in the other categories.
I would hope that some other sponsor would take over this event and award prizes to those worthy of the Rookie recognition from now on.
As I'm not part of the ISSA board, I'm just making this announcement to make sure that this need is properly announced and I hope that one or more sponsors are willing to take over this tradition. If you're interested in becoming a sponsor, let the ISSA board members know!
Many thanks to the many rookies that have fought for the top positions over the last years. It has been really exciting to follow your entries into this sport! Now let's recruit some new rookies for the 2009 race season!
