Alpe d'Huez Video Report: 26th October 2009

Rock on Snowboard Tour 2010

Updated

The winter season had it's first public on-snow event this weekend.

The Rock on Snowboard Tour stopped in Les Deux Alpes and was met with fresh snow and clear blue skies.

All the major manufacturers were on site with all the latest equipment and it was all free to test.We spoke to representatives from Rome and Ride to try and understand a little more about the new technology and left, frankly, as confused as when we arrived. However with free board demos all day it soon became apparent what the different types of camber meant.

There were concerts, parties, award shows and premieres as well as great conditions on France's largest skiable glacier.

All in all a great weekend.
