As the Rossignol Air Tour cancelled its snowboard stop in Chamrousse, we decided to switch our contest report into a BrOADER[spot] check! Great idea coz we’ve discovered a little jewel…

Sunset Park! This name sounds like a beach resort!! But the location has nothing to do with sea side…
Chamrousse and its park are located just next to Grenoble in the middle of the French Alps. It will take you only 30mn to drive from the center of Grenoble to the resort and you’ll have to spend 14 Euros to use the park’s dedicated lift. Fast & cheap could be their baseline!!

The park is not very wide, not very long but really well organised and really well shaped. You’ll find some kickers from 8m to 15m, some huge hips, a real pipe to use as a wall and, several rails and a boarder cross area.
Got a young brother or an active girlfriend (yes we’re just Macho man ) ? no problem! while you improve your skills on fat kickers, they can have fun in the Kid Park where two mini kickers and oops will be their playground!

We regret the fact that the rotations with the dedicated lift are too long (5 to 10 mn), the transitions between the kickers are too long even if it is due to the flat terrain. And finally, a half-pipe is really missing!

Finally, Sunset Park is the perfect spot if you want to have a fun, fast & cheap snowboard day next to Grenoble!!
