Watch the Biggest Comp of the Year for FREE!


Thats right, in our digital age the prospect of watching the biggest European Snowboarding competition live and for free is not a dream, but in fact a reality. All you will need is your computer, a decent internet connection, loads of beer, and some...er, tissues for all the thrills and spills that promises to be this years Burton European Open.

To catch all the action for the mens halfpipe final on Saturday 27th, live and Direct from Laax, Switzerland go to www.lat34.com/beo.

As you probaly know, Nike ACG and British riders Dan Wakeham, Angus Leith, and Rebecca Cullum are all taking part as are other ACG riders Gary Zebrowski, Henning Marthinsen and Ulrik Badertscher. For the Nokia Team only Mathieu Crepel is representing, but hot from his brace of golds in Arosa, he could be pushing all the other riders out of the lunch queue....

The bad news is that the competition organisers, due to adverse conditions, have cancelled the slopestyle events and thus we shall have to do with only the halfpipe, still, with Shaun White coming to stay it shouldn't be all that bad.

So for a proper Mexican-themed snowboarding extravaganza get stuck in this Saturday.
