A few weeks ago, the last days of the season in the Horsefeathers Superpark Dachstein were already in sight. But we knew: it was time again for a big Blue Tomato team shooting!
Beautiful weather, the sun is burning down but our lovely Dachstein always keeps us cool for beeing active for some beloved spring snowboard sessions!
So we decided to go for a huge one and invited our great Blue Tomato Snowboard family of team riders.
But we didn’t stop here, we also brought our guy for moving pictures, Thomas Kesselbacher, with us and chained him in front of his computer afterwards to provide you with a sweet little edit:
On the past weekend, the QParks Tour Finals went down on the Dachstein Glacier! Both Freeskiers and Snowboarders had to fight not only each other, but also the bad weather conditions. Because of wind, rain and fog, the planned slopestyle contest on the Pro Kickerline couldn’t be held, so the guys from QParks decided to move it to the Pro Railline instead. Our Teamriders brought home FOUR places on the podium! Congratulations to Roli Scharmer‘s first place and Flo Galler‘s second place in the Snowboard Men category! For the skiers, Martin Hauck and Daniel Walchhofer were successful in the Men and Rookie category and claimed a third place each!
And because the Horsefeathers Rock the Top was the Final of the QParks Tour, the Overall winners were crowned, too! Huge congratulations go out to Flo Galler for winning the Overall title Snowboard Men! Martin Hauck just missed the top spot and got second in the Freeski Men, just like Daniel Walchhofer did in the Rookie Overall Ranking, big congratulations to both of you, anyway!
Roli Scharmer (4th), Viktor Szigeti (5th), Georgi Mihaylov (9th) and Dominik Wagner (18th) also placed well in the Snowboard Men Overall ranking, so did Max (8th) and Tobi (15th) Grünwald in the Rookie and Lisa Veith (5th) in the Girls Overall ranking. Alex Moser secured a 7th place in the Freeski Men and Stefanie De Menech the 11th place in the Freeski Girls Overall ranking.
Congratulations again to all our Teamriders and we are already looking forward to next years QParks Snowboard and Freeski Tour!
Bei den ersten Youth Olympic Games 2012 in Innsbruck gelang Georgi ein guter 13. Platz. Nach langer Vorbereitung schaffte er die Qualifikation und kam ins Finale, indem es dann leider nicht fürs Treppchen reichte!
Viktor hingegen schaffte es beim Plan P Contest nicht nur aufs Podest (ein sagenhafter 1. Platz), er gewann sogar noch den Preis für den “Best Trick” mit einem Frontflip out of the Poljam.
Dadurch sicherte er sich einen Platz in den Finals beim Pleasure Jam im nächsten Jahr.
Des weiteren war Viktor auch beim TTR O’Neill Evolution in Davos mit dabei und obwohl “nur” ein 62. Platz dabei rauskam, qualifizierte er sich für die TTR Championchips in Oslo!
Als nächster Stop wird dann das Burton European Open in Laax anvisiert, wo er in der Disziplin Slopestyle an den Start gehen wird!
Blue Tomato Teamrider Georgi Mihaylov is having much fun at the Dachstein glacier. Watch his video with a lot of nice tricks in the Horsefeathers Superpark Dachstein!
Already looking forward to an amazing and snowy season, Georgi Mihaylov had to get some snow beneth his feet ! What could be better than the Hintertux glacier for an early season shred ?! Now it’s time to start snowing, even down in the valleys to get so much more and of course better shreds with a accurate winter feeling ! Let the season start !!!
