Tom Copsey — Thu, 10 Jan 2013 10:14:06 +0000

Take a look behind the scenes at this edit park shapers extraordinaire Schneestern just released showing what was involved when they built the mindblowing setup for the Nike Chosen Sessions last season.

April 2012, Silvretta Montafon/Austria. For the Nike Chosen Sessions some of the best AM riders and film crews from all over the world came together with the Nike Snowboarding riders like Halldor Helgason, Danny Kass, Jed Anderson, Jamie Nicholls and Ethan Morgan. Main object: having as much fun as possbile in one of the most progressive snow parks of all time!

The responsibility for the design and build-up of the snow park lay with the Schneestern team consisting of 27 shapers who had worked on the project for multiple months.

SnowBroader Spring Tour – Second Stop – Kaunertal & Spring Classics

Snowbroader — Wed, 05 May 2010 15:07:52 +0000

After Hintertux action we packed our stuff and headed for the second stop of Snowbroader Spring Trip, Fendels ski areas, more exactly the Kaunertal Glacier, where Spring Classics just got good started! And this is already for the seventh time! Schneestern crew, who made park again, proved that they know how to make magic out of metal and snow. Welcome to the Spring Classics 2010 on Kaunertal…

Just one hour driving from Innsbruck you can catch a sight of the glaciated peak of Weißseespitze, the symbol of the Tyrolean Kaunertal Valley! Whilst in April most of the winter resorts are closing down due to lack of snow, the Kaunertal Glacier is just about to present itself in perfect conditions to all snowboarders with Spring Classics entertainment.

Here you will find the park and happening that you are looking for! The park is daily taken care of by the Schneestern crew, so that everything is shaped into perfection. The lines are set perfectly, with just enough time between objects. The park is build in a way that all levels of riding can get satisfaction: beginner, medium and pro line gives you more pleasure that you can handle.

The perfectly shaped park throughout the Spring Classics is offering monster kicker, pro-kickerline, easy-kickerline, superpipe and mini shred, which is not as mini as they are saying (want to see how the set up looks like??? Click HERE). We could claim that the set-up on Kaunertal is one of the biggest Snowpark in Austria. So hitting this park is a perfect way of concluding the winter season before jumping into board shorts.

We all know that snowboarder’s dreams are shreding perfectly shaped park with no need for waiting to hit an obstacle. I’ll give you a tip how to live this dreams. Spring Classics 2010 on Kaunertal!!!

Our Video from Pre Air&Style Madness

Snowbroader — Thu, 17 Dec 2009 09:06:36 +0000

Two weeks Stubai Zoo presented the replica of the Billabong Air & Style kicker. German parkdesigners Schneestern made a great opportunity for riders to familiarize with the conditions. Almost the same kicker and perfect weather conditions gave riders opportunity to start with even more self-confidence into the Billabong Air & Style.

Riders like Seppe Smiths, Marko Grilc, Sani Alibabic, Gigi Ruf, Marc Swoboda, Eero Ettala, Peter Konig and Co. showed that no matter how big is the kicker they can throw any trick the crowd wants to see it. Going switch, making double flip, doble rodeos or corks, even big spins with double grabs, all that and even more was just a piece of cake for the present riders. The whole Stubai glaicer was holding breathe while riders were having fun.

Pre Air & Style Madness at Stubai Zoo

Snowbroader — Wed, 09 Dec 2009 14:08:15 +0000

Yesterday Stubai glaicer entertained a real madness. Stubai Zoo presented the replica of the Billabong Air & Style kicker. The almost similar takeoff, table and landing. We are talking about perfect conditions to warm-up runs and check the last tricks before Billabong Air & Style at the Bergisel Stadium on 05.12.09.

German parkdesigners Schneestern made a great opportunity for riders to familiarize with the conditions. Almost the same kicker and perfect weather conditions gave riders opportunity to start with even more self-confidence into the contest on Saturday.

Everything went great! But a day before on Teusday Schneestern confronted with major impediment. 70 cm of fresh snow. While some of us were having fun in pow pow, Schneestern shapers were sweating and trying to rebuild the kicker. And they made it! Big up to bros from Schneestern!

Riders like Seppe Smiths, Marko Grilc, Sani Alibabic, Gigi Ruf, Marc Swoboda, Eero Ettala, Peter Konig and Co. showed that no matter how big is the kicker they can throw any trick the crowd wants to see it. Going switch, making double flip, doble rodeos or corks, even big spins with double grabs, all that and even more was just a piece of cake for the present riders. The whole Stubai glaicer was holding breathe while riders were having fun.

We were also delivering LIVE streaming over these two days, but don’t worry, if you missed any it is still possible to rewatch our videos. Check what was going on and join our SnowBroader community. And don’t forget to come back, because a short movie is also coming in few days. First you will be able to see it on Saturday at The Soundclash Party in Innsbruck after the legendary Air & Style. So be there!
