Kitzsteinhorn Coaching weekend at the Central Park

FRIDAY, 26 JANUARY 2007

K2 Sports, RIDE Snowboards, Marker and Planet Earth present the Progression Session 2007: this is not a contest but the great opportunity to make progress and improve your skills with the aid of pro riders. K2 freeskier Daniel Schießl (GER), K2 Snowboarding and Planet Earth team rider Mone Monsberger (AUT) and RIDE team rider Reto Kestenholz (SUI) will be the coaches of the Progression Session series. They will give the participants tips how to improve their personal performance and give away tricks that only the pros know about.

In addition, a professional photographer will be at place to take pictures of the riders performing their airs and rail moves. After the event, the riders will have the possibility to download the pictures for free from the website www.snowparkguide.com.

Just like at each leg of the Progression Session, at the Kitzsteinhorn the riders also will have the option to test the newest products of the K2 ski, K2 snowboarding and RIDE snowboarding collections. At the K2 and RIDE test tents the riders will also be able to register for the participation in the Progression session from 10 am.

The conditions for the Progression Session at the Kitzsteinhorn are excellent: With the Glacier Park on the glacier at 2,900m as well as the Central Park and the Easy Park near Sonnenkarbahn at 2,600m, all three funparks are in full operation. 28 varied obstacles are waiting for the riders: from small kickers at the Easy Park over an 8-metre style roller and a 9-metre Curved Box at the Medium Line to a 16-meter tabletop kicker and a stepdown kicker with a 10-metre table at the hard line, the parks are ready to fulfil all needs of the riders.
