2005/2006 Winter Season

2006 was a good season all round with a lot of mixed emotion and a number of highs and lows for the snow sports community. This was one of the most dangerous winters in the Alps in years and we lost some great people and icons of the sport. But a lot of respect was gained for our mountains. On the Upside we have seen snowboarding develop into a more recognized sport in the mainstream with BoarderX gaining some of the best viewing figures of all the Olympic disciplines, also in the half pipe the snowboarding athletes showing the world that competing is not everything, its about having fun!
