HoopT and myself took a trip across the border to Austria last week.
The six hour drive was a breeze and we putted into Kitzbuhul on dusk and were greeted by our fellow marmut afficiano Scotty. After getting re-aquanted it was over to catch up with Kat for a mean feed to line the guts for the textbook Kitzbuhul Captain Morgen onslaught.
The morning after we awoke with shady memories of arriving home at 5am, pretty much standard around these parts! Though we shook off the hangovers ASAP and headed up the hill. The park at Pass Thurn was pretty sweet, big range of boxes, a mid sized kicker line plus a 18metre kick set off to one side which looked the goods but I was unable to sample due to my persisting knee qualms. Managed to snap my board behind the back binding but as luck would have it the rep for ROME was there to witness it and hooked me up with a new one! cheers buddy.
For the next week we based ourselves in Kitz and made road trips to the Zillertal Valley's Penken Park and Flacauwinkl where we shredded the Burton Stash as well as the Absolute Park. Both resorts are dope and we plan on heading that way again soon.
We also rode a jib garden in Widring which was flatlight fun.
Cheers to Scotty and Rick for the beds and marmut love.
We had an epic trip, caught up with old friends, made some new ones, got drunk, snowboarded badly but had a friggin blast, which is really all that matters. Here is a few pics of the trip.
Just logging footage for the next video edit. Planned on doing one from the one trip but didnt shoot much so have to wait for some more usable stuff.
