This is an awesome bit of vintage shred cinema. Released in 1994, The SCANDS features the first wave of Scandinavian snowboarders who exploded onto the scene and left a lasting mark. So sick.

This movie is full of riders who went on to become legends in snowboarding – it’s like a who’s who of early 90s shred talent: Injemar, Terje, Johan, Brushie, Franck… and after giving it a watch it’s tempting to say this was from when snowboarding was actually cool. It was certainly a more simple time. The focus on poking and shiftying the hell out is awesome to watch, although it seems landing wasn’t as necessary as it is today. At least punk rock tops metro pop any day of the week.

Produced and Released 1994.

Featuring Scandinavians riders like Terje Haakonsen, Ingmar Backman, Johan Olofsson, Daniel Franck, Sebu Kuhlberg, Eva Sandelgård, Marcus Fahlringe, Oskar Norberg, Anders Hagman and many more.

As you’ll have seen on Monday the Euro Gap 1 was nothing short of epic, so is this like their Empire Strikes Back? Kinda double awesome? Set aside 30 minutes, click Play and find out for yourselves.

Les Deux Alpes Snowpark is our playground this summer.

PAROM organizes two camps this summer in legendary glacier of Les Deux Alpes. Summer season is unmissable for the largest international teams and the park has a reputation for being the best place in Europe and world wide. The Snowpark is set to be bigger and more diverse than ever this year, and will include a super pipe, normal pipe, slopestyle, rails and much more. Our coaches Sebu Kuhlberg, Tomi Passi and Antti-Juhani Piirainen will train riders to the next level and teach tricks which you always wanted to learn. PAROM founders Inka Haapala and Marja Heikkinen have both worked years in the snow industry related to media and coaching. The experience and desire to provide summer training is behind establishing PAROM Camps.

PAROM riders are privileged to have first sessions in Les 2 Alpes Snowpark this summer. Their camps are starting 15th of June and Snowpark opens its doors for us the next day. Each camp has nine days of riding and coaching guaranteeing that you will have time to practise and learn tricks in half pipe, kickers and rails. Different zones in the Snowpark are designed for each level, from beginners to expert riders and everything between. Whatever your level, our well known trainers will enable you to make progress.

PAROM Camps is all about relaxed atmosphere of summer riding. Afternoons are dedicated for many off-snow activities in the Isere Alp village. Various activities from summer luge to skateboarding are all included to our camp programme. Having fun and enjoying summer with PAROM staff and visiting superstars will make this trip memorable.
