Next week, snowboarding’s finest will gather en masse in Hintertux for the very first park opening of the season. For the 18th time pro-riders, amateurs and members of the snowboard industry meet to kick off the new winter season with the Hintertux Park Opening. The snowboarders take over the Tux valley from September 30th – October 3rd. Are you excited yet?

Winter seems to come around quicker each year and luckily for us Betterpark Hintertux is the best place to kick off the season. Local legend, Werni Stock, has yet again organised the ultimate showdown with the Werni’s Big Air Session by Quiksilver. This year the Session features some of the World’s greatest riders with Stale Sandbech (NOR), Halldor Helgason (ISL), Ethan Morgan (GER), Fridtjof “Fridge” Tischendorf (NOR) and Mons Roisland (NOR) all making the journey to Hintertux to show what they can do. The session on the big jump is open for anybody who fancies it and feels like they can challenge the pro riders. Next up there is the Burton Quarter Cash for Tricks Session, which is an open session that everybody can attend. Jibbers should make sure to attend the Cash for Tricks Session on the rails, held in the park and the ones that get lucky will be invited to take part in the Metal Battle Rail Contest on Saturday evening. The youngest riders are in good hands, as the Kids Shred with riding and coaching by legends such as Wolle Nyvelt, The Grilogang with Nina Grilc and the kids and Gigi Rüf, who will be accompanied by a photo-shooting and a DJ workshop at the end, to provide everything you need to create lifelong memories for the kids (registration KIDS SHRED). The snowboard industry will gather at the Fernerhaus with a free demo for all visitors, who are keen to discover the new W22/23 hardgoods.
