Snowboarding in Gastein
Still a good six weeks before the Snowboard Cross finals on 15 January 2012, the impending World Cup weekend in Bad Gastein already has everyone enthralled. A new course and an attractive program of side events make the season’s second SBX contest a highlight of the FIS calendar for board artists. In year one post Mario Fuchs, young Austrians are ready to step out of the footsteps of the two-time Gastein champion and capture the spotlight for themselves. During the run-up to the event and on the race weekend itself, a team of up to 100 people will guarantee that everything goes off without a hitch.
Event Venue: Bucheben ski area next to the valley terminal of the Stubnerkogel lift in Bad Gastein.
