This winter season, 10 freeskiers and snowboarders had the mission to rock the MINI Snowpark Feldberg during a one-day coaching session with real pros. In the preceding online voting, these riders left their competitors behind and saved their slot for this private session with snowboarder Alex Tank and freeskier Sebi Geiger. Free lunch, lift ticket and loads of goodies were part of their reward. Here’s how the passionate riders spent this brilliant shred day.

Last week, the snowboarders Daniel Sigel, Valentin Stricker, Christian Bürk, Raphael Bärmann and Jay Goudswaard submitted their best action shots and obtained the highest number of votes during the online voting. They got the chance to spend an exclusive day with the highly popular street Rider Alex Tank. The ‘Atagge‘ crew member who not only likes to be in front of, but also behind the camera, definitely knows how to rip the park: He has already fine-tuned his tricks in numerous shred-sessions around the globe and turned his passion into a professional career.

Marc Herkt, Andreas Rossmanith, Martin Rossmanith, Jose Boll and Nico Kaiser were the lucky winners of the freeskiers. As their coach no other than Sebi Geiger who has, amongst others, a part in the latest legs of steel edit „Passenger“, stood on their side for the entire day at the MINI Snowpark Feldberg.

Despite heavy fog and harsh winter conditions, the participants as well as the coaches were looking forward to this joint session. After some warm up laps, they already talked shop about their first tricks. With their well-trained and experienced eyes, the coaches immediately observed their training partners’ shred routine. How ever, no matter how high their riding level was, the pros had secret tips and tricks for everyone.

“It was so much fun shredding together with Alex and the other guys and to work on tricks,“ Raphael Bärmann states after the session. The Feldberg local hasn’t missed any of the park’s events: After participating in the Bohny Masters powered by MINI and the previous shooting of Black Forest Calling, he has only positive news to report. „Alex is a really cool guy, we had a good time chatting with him and he revealed a lot of tips.“
After the day, the freeskiers had a lot to talk about as well: “A great day all in all. Shredding with Sebi was pretty awesome. We had a lot of fun,“ Marc Herkt tells us with a smiling face. Andreas Rossmanith has already took part in pro coaching sessions and is equally impressed: “The day was incredibly awesome and Sebi is really easygoing! My personal highlight was our skate session. I already took part last year with Paddy Graham and this year was even more fun, since I brought my brother and a buddy! Again thank you so much for this fantastic day!“
