Trotz des miesen Wetters war die Stimmung am Samstag  super, vor allem als sich die Blue Tomato Teamrider Marc Swoboda und  Clemens Schattschneider die ersten beiden Plätze sicherten!

Die Volcom Jungs heizten mit cooler Musik und lustigen Kostümen ein. In abgespacten Astronauten-Verkleidungen waren die Jungs ein echter Hingucker. Auch zahlreiche Rider ließen sich vom schlechten Wetter nicht abschrecken und zeigten beim Contest was sie drauf haben!

Für die Rail Jam wurden auf dem frisch geshapten Park drei besondere Obstacles aufgestellt:  eine Riffel to Downrail, eine Kinked Box und eine Elbow Riffel Rohr Compo mit einer Up Pole darüber. Der Contest wurde eingeteilt in Girls, Boys unter 15, Boys über 16 und Open (Pros, Legends).

Mit dabei unsere Blue Tomato Teamrider Marc Swoboda, Roli Scharmer, Clemens Schattschneider und Dominik Wagner. Auch dabei, aber diesmal auf der anderen Seite des Contests, war Flo Galler, der die Rolle eines Jugdes übernahm. Voll konzentriert und mit einem Klemmbrett unter dem Arm, verfolgte er mit Adleraugen das Geschehen.

Nach der Qualifikation wurde der Grill beim Volcom Zelt angeworfen, wo man sich for free richtig den Magen vollschlagen konnte! Neu gestärkt rockten Marc und Clemes schließlich das Finale und sicherten sich so den 1. (Marc) und 2. Platz (Clemens)!

Auch zwei Mädels fanden sich unter den Ridern: Isy Szumovski und Klara Dinold zeigten ihre Girl-Power an den Obstacles.

Nach dem Finale und einem super spannenden Contest wurde zum Ende die Siegerehrung vollzogen. Mit coolen Preisen und einem Ticket nach Laax zur European PBRJ Championships am 16. April endete schließlich der Tag für die Gewinner. Ein Highlight war auch der Preis für den “coolsten Fahrer des Tages”, den, kaum zu glauben, ein 50-Jähriger Contest-Teilnehmer bekam. Voll motiviert und körperlich in Bestform, zeigte er den Jungs, dass man auch in diesem Alter richtig stylisch über die Kinked Box kommt.

Und hier seht ihr noch die Resultate:

1. 1. Platz: Marc Swoboda
2. 2. Platz: Clemens Schattschneider
3. 3. Platz: Seppi Scholler

Kategorie Girls:
1. Isy Szumovski
2. Klara Dinold

Despite the miserable weather, the atmosphere at the Volcom Peanut Butter Rail Jam in the Blue Tomato Snowpark Stuhleck was great, especially when our Blue Tomato teamriders Marc Swoboda and Clemens Schattschneider achieved the victory! 

The Volcom guys heated up the mood with cool music and funny costumes. In spacy astronaut suits the guys were a funny eye-catcher. Also lots of motivated riders didn’t mind the bad weather and showed their best tricks on the contest setup. 

For the rail jam special obstacles were built up in the fresh shaped park: a riffle to down rail, a kinked box and an elbow riffel rail compo with an up pole.  The judgement was separated into four categories: girls, boys under 15, boys over 16 and open (pros, legends).

Represented at the contest were our Blue Tomato Teamriders Marc Swoboda, Roli Scharmer, Clemens Schattschneider and Dominik Wagner. Also at the contest was Flo Galler, but this time as a judge: with a clipboard under his arm, fully concentrated, and eagle-eyed he observed the contest.

After the qualification the Volcom guys fired up the grill at their tent, where all food was for free! Full of energy Marc and Clemens then rocked the finals with their sick tricks and finally won.

Also 2 girls joined the contest: Isy Szumovski and Klarand Dinold showed their girl power on the obstacles.

After the finals and an exciting contest, the award ceremony was held. With cool prizes and a ticket to Laax for the European PBRJ Championships on April 16th, the day ended for the winners of the contest. One of the highlights was the title of the “coolest rider of the day”. Hard to believe, but this title was given to a 50 year old man. Fully motivated and physically in top form, he showed the boys that also a rider at his age is able to ride the kinked box with massive style!

Letztes Wochenenden wurde wieder dem besten Jibber/-in die Krone aufgesetzt im Absolut Park bei Flauchawinkl.

Königlich und vor allem spektakulär ging der JIB KING contest vergangenes Wochenende in Flauchauwinkl über die Bühne und wieder einmal konnte der  JIB QUEEN und dem  JIB KING die Krone aufgesetzt bzw. übergeben werden. Dem Anlass gebührend dem Anlass war auch das Set Up im Absolut Park von majestätischer Manier um am Freitag erfolgreich in den 2 Tägigen Contest zu starten. Nach dem Battle der Freeskier an diesem Tag kämpften am Samstag die Snowboarder um die Krone.

Und natürlich waren auch unsere Blue Tomato Teamrider mit viel Erfolg dabei. In der Kategorie Snowboard über 15 Jahren gingen Roli Scharmer (3.Platz) und Flo Galler (5.Platz) an den Start. Bei den Freeskiern belegte Martin Hauck in der Kategorie Ski über 15 Jahren den 5. Platz und die Abräumerin des Abends war Stefanie De Menech die in der Kategorie Ski Mädels den sensationellen 1. Platz erzielte! Gratulation!

Last weekend the crown was again given to the best jibbers in Absolut Park in Flauchwinkl.

Royally and even more spectacular the JIB KING contest took place last weekend in Flauchauwinkl, and again could the crown be put on respectively be given to the JIB QUEEN and the JIB KING. Appropriate for this event was also the set up in the Absolut Park majestically so that the start on Friday for the two days of contest was very successful. After the battle of the free skiers on this day the snowboarders were fighting on Saturday about the crown.

And of course also our Blue Tomato Teamrider took successfully part in this event.  Roli Scharmer (3rd place) and Flo Galler (5th place) took part in the category snowboarder over the age of 15. In the category freeskier over the age of 15 Martin Hauck became 5th- but it was a girl who rocked that evening: Stefanie De Menech won in the category Freeski Girls! Congratulation!

Partys mit DJ-Lines – ja, kennen wir, tanzen, aber sonst? Filmpräsentationen – auch bekannt. Steif, förmlich, und danach? Zirkus – für die Kinder ja, aber altbacken und fad.

Nicht so beim “Circus Delüxse – Artisten, DJs, Attraktionen” supported by Blue Tomato am 25.09.2010 ab 20:00 Uhr im ÖGB-Saal in Wiener Neustadt. Die Initiativen Southurban und Struttinbeats, beide langjährig erfahren im Party- und Eventbereich, haben sich mit der Snowboard-Crew Bamboo Motion Pictures zusammengetan und bringen an diesem Abend all das unter einen Hut, das man einzeln sowieso schon lange kennt. Mit von der Partie ist nicht nur das Blue Tomato Team, du kannst auch noch die Team Member Marc Swoboda, Dominik Wagner, Clemens Schattschneider und Flo Galler im Movie bewundern!

12 DJs spielen auf, unterstützt von 3 MCs, als Highlight um 22:30 Uhr die Weltpremiere des Snowboardvideos “Sketchy” von Bamboo Motion Pictures. Dabei wird auf einer musikalischen Reise von Reggae, Dancehall, HipHop über Electro, BreakBeats, Funk bis Dubstep und Drum&Bass jeder Besucher das Tanzbein bis in die frühen Morgenstunden schwingen. Dazwischen launige Moderation, Verlosung von Preisen, Tanzeinlagen, Artisten, Verkleidungen und Live-Piercing & Tattoo.

Und das alles für den okkasionellen Besucherkostenbeitrag von EUR 5,-. Wir freuen uns auf euch!

Parties with a DJ line-up – yes, we know that, dancing, but what else? Movie presentations – also well known: starchy, formal, and then? Circus – for children yes, but frumpy and boring.

But not at the “Circus Delüxse – Artists, DJs, Attractions” supported by Blue Tomato on September 25 at 8pm at the ÖGB-Saal in Wiener Neustadt. The initiatives Southurban and Struttinbeats, both longstanding experienced in parties and events lined up with the snowboard-crew Bamboo Motion Pictures and accommodate all these things on this evening. The Blue Tomato team will be there, but you can also marvel at the teamriders Marco Swoboda, Clemens Schattschneider, Flo Galler and Dominik Wagner, that take part in the movie!

12 DJs will act up, supported by 3 MCs, but the highlight will definitely be the world premiere of the new snowboardvideo “Sketchy” by Bamboo Motion Pictures at 22.30. On a musical trip from reggae, dancehall, hiphop to electro, breakbeats and funk to dubstep and drum&bass every visitor will be on the dancefloor until early in the morning. In between humorous moderation, tombola, dance interludes, artists, costumes and live-piercing & tattoo.

And this all for an occasional price of EUR 5,-. We are looking forward to seeing you!

On the 14th of July the Blue Toamto Teamriders Flo Galler and Roli Scharmer and a few other riders from the QParks team rocked a Multi-cube obstacle on the Dachstein glacier.

The obstacel was actually made for filming works of “Die Bergwacht” by the german TV (ARD/ZDF). However, after the filming was over the qparks team prepared the obstacle a bit and made it ready to ride.

„All the riders pushed it hard and had a lot of fun. Wallrides, Gap Jumps, Waterslides, Gap to Box transfers and all at once, it was just really cool to shoot. One of the funniest sessions in a long time for sure“ says Simon van Hal, who shot the pictures…

Time flyes. One month ago, the Horsefeathers Superpark Dachstein opend it’s gates for the summmer season 2010.
On the opening weekend we had great fun, and about 400 riders enjoyed the sunshine and 20° C.
The first contest – the Ride and Roar Rail Jam was a great success for the Blue Tomato Team. Flo Galler won the sb mens and our new teamrider Urska Pribosic won the sb wmns.

The finishing of the Opening Weekend was the Horsefeathers party in Schladming, where is seemed like the party will never come to an end.

Click the clip to see what happened of the Opening Weekend.

However, that was just the beginning of the summer season.

Horsefeathers and the Dachstein Team organized some great camps; from jib and chill to girls camps to coaching and scouting weekends. So there was something for everybody. More about the Camps here.

QParks brought the video contest Copy and Post into being, where you have to copy some tricks, put them on video and send them to QParks. You want to show your moves? Then go to qparks.com

And of course there were heaps of shootings, like the Blue Tomato Rookie Shooting.

“Let’s be honest, snowboarding in summer: is there anything better?”
Styrian snowboard pro Flo Galler is eager of the Dachstein Opening 2010! He told us why he will be in the Horsefeathers Superpark Dachstein as often as possible this summer!

Hey Flo! How is a snowboard pro like you feeling at the onset of summer?
Chilling out, studying and skating are my plans until the Dachstein finally finally finally opens!

Exactly! Soon the Horsefeathers Superpark Dachstein at the glacier opens. What are you looking forward to?
To many people I haven’t seen for a long time, to a park that could not be better and to the summerlike temperatures that will constantly predominate this season.

Will you buy a season ticket and why should all the others freestylers do so too?
Sure I’ll buy a season ticket, but besides only 25 others should also buy one so I’ll have the park for myself more often. Hehe, I’m just joking… Let’s be honest, snowboarding in summer: is there anything better? It’s warm and you learn five new tricks a day as you don’t have to fear to get hurt because the snow is so soft.

Why snowboarding?
Why not?

Why Dachstein?
Best park, progress, summer feeling, nice people….

How would you describe the park to a friend of yours who don’t know it?
Wicked so wicked so wicked so wicked, 50 runs a day and in these 50 runs you can do 200 rails or 150 kickers!

Let’s look back to the last season… What comes to your mind when thinking about the Dachstein?
Many new tricks, many new friends and bad weather. ☹

What would you as snowboard pro wish for the new setup?
I already know the setup. I hope for clear cold nights and warm bluebird days, then I’d be really happy.

What are your further plans now?
I’ll be one of those who’ll use the park as often as possible, just like last year!!!

At the end I want to say…
QPARKS …….Sooooooooooo…… tschg tschg…. FRESH!!
