The HOTZONE.TV snowboard pro team goes on a shred mission to Europe´s best snow domes

The first snow has fallen, the first powder kickers have been built and the first powder pictures are already in the box. Right, before the winter season kicks off in the mountains, some of the HOTZONE.TV snowboard pro team riders travel to Europe´s best snow domes to meet the local dudes and rock the best indoor parks together with them.

Well-known riders like Werni Stock, Andreas „Mone“ Monsberger, Peter Koenig and Lars Oesterle will not only show off, they will also be on hand for freebie individual freestyle snowboard coachings for the local homies and help with tips and tricks.

First stop of the HOTZONE.TV indoor snowboard sessions is the Alpincenter Bottrop in the heart of the German „Ruhr district.“ Especially for Saturday, 21st of November, the team of the local ski- and snowboard school Top On Snow will place a nice set-up with freshly shaped snowpark on the 640 metre slope of the snow dome. Freestyle fans can look forward to a beginner and medium kicker, flat down box, down box and down rail and incidentally test the latest products of Flow snowboards.
On Sunday, 22nd of November, it continues in the Netherlands at SnowWorld Landgraaf, close to the German border. All those, who have been there before, already know it well! A trip to SnowWorld Landgraaf is worth a journey. Not only, because it is amply rewarded with five slopes of up to 520 metres length, eight lifts and the world wide largest indoor snowpark. The set-up with two rail lines and one kicker line is impressive. Two „pro“ kickers, one „medium“ kicker and a great choice of rails and boxes in all different sizes and variations from rainbow to flat, down and flat down and up to down flat down make sure, that it never gets boring at SnowWorld Landgraaf. All those, who like to stay for the weekend, can check in at the Hotel SnowWorld for quite affordable prices.

On Saturday, 28th of November, the HOTZONE.TV snowboard pro team riders are moving on to visit the perfectly shaped Q-Park in Europe´s most modern indoor ski resort just before the gates of Hamburg, in the SNOW DOME Bispingen. On a slope of 300 metres length and 100 metres width, the snowpark Bispingen shines with a majestic set-up of four kickers, five boxes and rails (butter, flat, up down, kinked, A-frame).

Last stop on the schedule of the HOTZONE.TV indoor snowboard sessions is Snowtropolis, situated in Eastern Germany between Berlin and Dresden. On Sunday, 29th of November, the 130 metre long and 40 metre wide slope transforms into a perfect snow park with kickers, rails and boxes.
Travelling into the „Lausitz“ for that weekend will surely be worth it! Budget holiday homes in log cabin style can also be rented for the weekend.

The snowboard freestyle coachings are free of charge. Participants will only have to pay for the skipass as far as they aren’t a proud owner of an annual-season-ticket.
Everybody can sign-in at 10.00 a.m. at the HOTZONE.TV booth in the foyer right in the morning before the session starts.

Shredding, coaching and rocking time will be between 11.00 a.m. and 05.00 p.m.
