This winter our crew will be traveling around Europe to cover some major stops of the Burton AM Tour! This is were the next generation is sharpening their contest skills and be sure that the winners of the Burton AM are the future big stars of snowboarding! It’s really a good opportunity for them to show what they are capable of specially when the overall winner gets invited to the Burton European Open 2010. Take young Tim-Kevin Ravnjak from Slovenia for example. He is literally blowing up the opposition with insane runs out of his huge repertoire…at only 12 years old!
For the first stop in 2009, the Burton AM Tour was in the epic resort of Flachauwinkl. Well it was a nice event, the weather was perfect even if the day before it was completely stormy. The organization crew worked so hard that the event was perfectly on time for the 50 snowboarders, girls and boys, who came to ride hard. Big up also to the Absolut Park crew because the park was perfect as it is usual in Flachauwinkl.
