The Swiss Federation presents the best snowboard tour in Switzerland.
The national snowboard tour consists of more than over 30 events in the disciplines of freestyle, boardercross and race which take place all over Switzerland.
One of the highlights of the winter season 2013/14 include the tour stops in Laax as a 3* World Snowboard Tour contest, the European Cup in Davos , Lenzerheide and Lenk as well as the Swiss Championships of the three disciplines at the end of the season . For the first time in years the Swiss Freestyle Championships will be held together with the freeskiers and take place on the 11 and 12 of April on Corvatsch.
The larger events are open and attractive for everyone. This coming season they are weighted more strongly. In the future, they should also attract riders from the neighboring countries. This will enable the Audi Snowboard Series to further establishing itself as one of the most important junior tours of Europe in the snowboard world. At the same time in selected regional competitions tour points can be collected from this winter season on – this facilitates the competition entry for local riders. At all Open events every snowboarder can participate.
The Audi Snowboard Series serves as an ideal stepping stone for young snowboarders to evolve into the international elite. The Tour winner of 2010/11 , David Hablützel , for example, has a good chance to qualify this winter season in the halfpipe for the Olympic Games in Sochi. Furthermore, Verena Rohrer – the winner of the Tour last season – was awarded the “Rookie of the Year 2012/13” title by the World Snowboard Tour. At the latest point in time both will be participating in the Swiss Snowboard Championships – until then many young and talented riders have the opportunity to follow in their footsteps.
