Awesome day at Hintertux by Erik Bastiaansen



23rd of October 2011, the second training day for the Flow Youth Team Benelux.

Rise and shine at 6:45am. After a nice breakfast with bread, eggs and a cup of tea, we got dressed for today. Warming up on our way to the bus and after a ten minute ride we were up in the lift to the Hinterux Gletsjer.
The first exercise was carving, just to improve our riding technique; the trainer says that it's very important for riding a kicker.
We were stoked riding the park. First straight air’s and later on FS360’s, BS180’s, etc.
Hintertux is awesome, we saw some pro boarders in action like Torstein Horgmo and Jeremy Tomphson (Flow rider).  
During training video’s and foto’s were taken for analysis later in the evening. Bas Elhorst commented on the video’s. I will try to work on his comments tomorrow.
After a day of hard work we were rewarded with a rest in the sun and a lovely meal (real Indian Curry).
Closing the day with a sauna and writing this report.

Tomorrow Joey's report.
