Words by Maurice Rolka:
From the summer feeling straight back onto the board? There are summers after which the new snowboard season is suddenly just around the corner and last summer was definitely one of them. Nevertheless, we were more than stoked to finally be back where every Austrian snowboard season starts with a loud bang, the Hintertux Park Opening 2022. And although it still felt like summer in the valley, the snowpark showed up in all its glory and invited us to put the latest Salomon snowboards to the test.
We are proud to kick off our third season with Salomon Snowboards, representing one of the most traditional snowboard brands on the market. As the first snowboard test of the new season, Hintertux is always an absolute highlight, as this is where you as a snowboarders can test the brand new boards of the season for the first time, which are now available fresh from the oven in your trusted snowboard store. And as always, we brought strong new releases such as the updated Huckknife and Huckknife Pro, exciting new developments in Salomon snowboard bindings and many other highlights that have only waited to be tested by you guys.
And as always, the opening was simply a captivating event. As always, we experienced huge enthusiasm for the new boards and bindings, as well as lots of motivated shredders who seem to have been waiting all summer to test the new Salomon products.
The feedback we have received on the new products speaks for itself. Tons of happy faces after an extensive test in the park, lots of stoke for the updated Huckknife, huge love for the new Abstract and its design by Kaylie Kaitschuk, wind-blown happy faces after fast rides with the new Dancehaul. The boards and bindings have been very well received and are also giving the Go-Shred event team a good time.
And as always, your feedback leaves us absolutely speechless and motivates us to go through many more seasons with Salomon. We hope to see you on the mountain, in the snowpark or at one of our next Salomon Snowboards test events.
