Snowboarding in Mayrhofen 2010

I went snowboarding in Mayrhofen (Austria) last week. I wanted to go back to Austria after doing a season in St Anton before uni, which was just an amazing 6 months.

I’d probably have to say that I had one of the best ski holidays that i’ve ever been on. We booked with Crystal Ski, the snow was great, resort had great nightlife, a huge ski area, friendly people and amazing value for money. What more can you ask for!

We were also lucky enough that our trip conincided with Oakley’s Job Vid competition.

Here’s some of my pics from the break.

Two videos; one of the most ridiculous half pipe that Red Bull made for Shaun White and another showing his new trick that he pulled out at the Olymipcs. He had already won at the Olympics so had nothing to lose, he decides to pop a Tomahawk in there for laughs, that’s a Double McTwist 1260.

These are some of the best snowboard (from snowboardaddiction.com) ‘how to’ videos that i’ve seen. I learnt these with the help of this video on my season, although this winter i’ll be nailing some bigger ones!
