From 6th to 13th of April 2008 Kühtai hosted the BAGJUMP SpringBreak08 Snowboard&Freeski Camp. The Film&Foto Award presented by TVB-Kühtai was an additional feature to the Camp where filmer and photographers had the chance to get the best shots from the whole resort and be rewarded with 2000Euro prize-money. Good riders had the chance to get some international coverage and present their skills. This event was a unique experience for snowboarder, freeskier, filmer- and photographer!

A perfect shaped park, the BAGJUMP MegaBag for training and 4 IOU-Special obstacles prepared for shootings throughout the backcountry. The Völkl Pro Team was here to coach and film for the Völkl-Movie the whole week and many other international Pros to get some last shots from the 2007/08 Season with over 40 international photographers and filmers around. Some lucky campers got a Völkl Sponsorship because of their amazing riding skills. The weather was like it is in April: unpredictable! As we had Snowstorms and waist deep powder for the first 3 days and fine spring slush with mostly blue sky for the rest of the SpringBreak08. Camp-Hotel Marlstein was located close by and the food was excellent with breakfast buffets in the morning and 4 course dinners in the evenings.

Campers and daily visitors had the chance to win Zimtstern, Völkl, Gravis and X-Double prizes in the everyday mini-competitions like Poker-Tournaments, Best Trick-MegaBag, Night-Sessions on the special spots and the XBOX360 Guitar Hero Madness. Due to the bad weather Saturdays SpringOFF Slopestyle Contest took place on the rails whit over 60 motivated riders giving their best to win money and prizes.

Everyone could get 2009 Boards and Skis at the Völkl Test in the chill area and test their new Board or Ski of Choice. Listening to fine tunes coming from the RedBull Event Car mixed by Dj Seren and eating at the BAGJUMP BBQ/Grill was a good chance to regain energy for riding. While watching international Pros practicing contest winning tricks into the MegaBag not only media but also the crowd and people passing by took out the camera to capture the action.

Oh snap! We are just over 3 weeks away from the start of camp! I went up last week and got some shots of the park area before the construction started, look at all the snow...
 
 
I got so excited with all the snow, I could not help but give it the horns.
 
 
Then to make my Friday even better, we received the first shipments of some new custom camp gear for this summer.  I also realized something else...
 
 
I am ugly when I'm stoked, but hopefully the new bag makes up for it.
 
 
^^^ Water bottles from SIGG.  Wait until you guys see the jackets and hoodies from Zimtstern!  They are super sick.  We also have some custom gloves coming from Dakine.  So with all this dope new gear for this summer, we decided to start a new reality TV show called "Pimp Our Campers"!  Well not really.

Camp C has sold out, Camps A and B are on the verge, but we do have some room left in D.  Make sure you sign up soon if you haven't already so you don't miss out on the new park and gear this summer!

Coming next week, some shots of the park getting set up...
