World Snowboard Day – Countdown in China, Japan and Korea
Sunday, December 21, 2014, promises good times and snowboard-sliding fun. So get your gear ready pronto; at resort near you things are about to rock! As usual, you will find a whole host of activities during the event: contests, beginner snowboard lessons, gear tests, demos, meet-and-greets with professional riders, drinks, concerts, video contests, and much, much more. The only goal will be to have an unbelievably GOOD TIME! Enjoy activities for free, open to anyone and everyone, in order to discover the joys of sliding on snow, to share a common passion for snowboarding, and above all else to enjoy one outrageously excellent day!
In 2013, World Snowboard Day hosted 114 events in 30 countries around the world. Since the launch of this international event eight years ago, more than 100,000 people have been able to discover the joy of sliding on snow and to ride to the rhythm of WSD. After 8 highly successful editions, this event has become a must for everyone who lists snowboarding as their passion.
“The Ambassador”: this year once again, a new pro-rider will take over the reins from the charismatic Xavier de Le Rue. It is with great honor for us to announce that this year’s ambassador is none other than the legendary Régis Rolland! This amazing rider is excited to transmit his passion through the unique adventure that is the World Snowboard Day, and like him, we hope that you will show up at the “right place at the right time”… To enjoy riding the world’s summits on December 21st , 2014.
