Christmas holidays are over but Elias Elhardt is still receiving gifts. 21 years old upcoming TSG rider Elias Elhardt from Oberstaufen wasn’t aware of the fact he was on the list for the title of best german snowboarder of the year, a award given from the German Action sports community. Next think he knows is that his name is now engraved on the trophy of the best snowboarder of the year, after David Benedek who received it last year. Elias stand out performances during 2009 include last part in Jolly Roger, latest Pirates movie, a well as victory during the cross over session of Freestyle.berlin in Templehof early October. Here is Elias thoughts after receiving getting the award. “ I’m glad and thankful that the snowboard community voted so much for me. Receiving this award after David Benedek is something special and is a compliment. Beside the Contests I will film for the pirates again this year and also work with my Sponsors Rip Curl and Nitro on Video Projects. I hope it goes so well this season again and I’m already looking forward to many good moments on my Snowboard…” Elias is sitting on 6th place TTR world tour (13.01.2010) and will focus the rest of the season on getting his second video part with the Pirates as well as keep on competing to do his best at TTR final ranking. Congratulations Elias!
