It’s like a big TSG-rider-get-together but it’s called Freestyle.ch and it takes place this weekend in our hometown Zurich, Switzerland. If you are around you shouldn’t miss the show of Europe’s biggest freestyle happening. Come and watch our riders Iouri Podladtchikov and Elias Elhardt going big on the snowboard, follow freeskier Bene Mayr on the big jump or get dizzy when Jürgen Horrwarth, Renton Millar, Jocke Olsson and Sam Beckett perform on the vert skate ramp.
You can visit us and see our new winter 2011 products in the label world. Our swiss distributor Talstation runs the booth.
MAKE SURE TO STEP BY ON SUNDAY AT 12:00 WHEN ELIAS ELHARDT HANDS OUT POSTERS FOR A SIGNATURE SESSION.
Since the event is concentrated on two days this year, all invited big names are sure to be at the start on Saturday.
Zurich itself is furnishing one of the most promising contenders for the title of freestyle.ch’s oldest discipline, snowboarding: winner of X Games Europe, Iouri Podladtchikov. «Last year my hometown chose me as crossover.champ. This year I want to finally thank Zurich for it by winning the snowboarding competition!» says Podladtchikov of his participation. Iouri already proved to have the right form in August at the Burton New Zealand Open, where he won the halfpipe event.
