The day has finally come! Snowy winter landscapes are smiling at us via webcam and, getting us in the right mood for the new season 2012/13! This year, the Vans Penken Park again impresses with a spectacular setup, which has something in stock for everybody, from rookie to pro. Have a first look at it in our cool 3D-animated Roundflip. This year will also see lots of action off-piste so, in a word, the new season in the Vans Penken Park Mayrhofen will be absolutely awesome!

First things first: Once again, park designer Sven Toller and his hardworking shape crew will outdo themselves with this year’s setup. Be it beginner, advanced rider or pro, over a length of 520m, the Vans Penken Park offers shred fun for everyone. You can prove your riding skills at no less than four different lines. The kids park bursts with training facilities for all young bloods and offers an armada of butter-boxes in addition to three kickers. In the public area, airtime is the key word as the six take-offs between 5 – 8m guarantee kicker fun at its best. The advanced area offers a lively mix of jibs, boxes, tubes and rails, as well as a funbox and two kickers with 12 and 14m. Yet another highlight awaits you in the pro area: the multi jib beast box, which will spice up your shred day. Also, a little rail garden will be at your service with a down, a flat/down and a flat/down/flat rail. No matter where you want to give your skills free reign, at the Vans Penken Park Mayrhofen you will always get your money’s worth!

Girls just wanna have fun! Naturally, this year will be packed with action surrounding Mayrhofen’s most popular playground. At the Girls Day, for instance, all female shred heads will be invited to a special gathering to celebrate and encourage the increasing number of female freestyle talents properly. Girls, it’s time to get excited, because the Girls Day gives you the chance to improve your riding skills with the help of a pro, and to experience an awesome day bursting with an action shooting, BBQ and massive girl power.

Ready, set … raffle! For all raffle enthusiasts, we have something else in store: twice in this season, you’ll get the chance to win high-quality boots dryers at our “Happy Feet” raffle. Those among you who can’t get enough gamble action should definitely pay attention to this year’s edition of “Clash of Communities”.

Once again it’s all about securing a phat obstacle. Who manages to mobilize the most fans for their homebase at the end of the day can look forward to a high-class obstacle that the victorious community may shred vividly from dusk till dawn. So check out the Vans Penken Park Facebook Fanpage and vote till you drop!

As every year, we can’t wait to draw our first lines into the snow and explore the park in every detail. Especially when looking at last season’s sick moves and prime highlights in the best-of snowboard clip or the breathtaking overview in the 3D Roundflip, there’s nothing that keeps us on our seats. So get your boards out of their summer stash and prepare yourselves for another awesome season at the Vans Penken Park Mayrhofen! See u soon!
