In order to the enormous rush on the registrations we have got some news for all competitors!
We have now 110 registered competitors. We are stoked! That leads to a very tight time schedule. Please make sure you are early engough to get your number.
Inscription for all registered riders starts 8am at the lift station. Race starts 10.30!! If you want to check out the course before that come early.
We will try to offer anyone to have two runs. But because of the numerous racers we are not able to promise this is possible. The decision how many riders can do a second run will be taken at the race.

Number of competitors is already up to 69!
So nice to see that people are keen for this race!
Thanks to all who signed in and to the last 11 left!
so far we've got 59 men, 10 women and 0 kids competing
And not to forget - Kids are welcome!
It's all about fun!
On 2nd of april we're going to race through a natural basin, man-made course, „Old School Style“! The course is set up in Gargellen at Schafberg and the race starts at 10:00 am. Riders of all ages, rookies and experts, can show their skills.
Early this season I realized that there are so many talents out there. It would be cool to bring some of them together in a true snowboard event which is not about freestyle or freeriding but snowboarding. In some conversation Marco „Fichtl“ Feichtner came up with the idea of a banked slalom and I immediately knew what to do. So here we go now. Hope to see you there.
As we have a maximum number of 80 competitors please make sure to register in advance on our website (Registration)
ride on
