Last weekend over in Europe we went on a mission down to the huge ice block of Der Dachstein Glacier where the Horsefeathers Pleasure Jam 2008 was going down.  Der Dachstein Glacier was a nice solid chunk of ice with a rad park shaped into it that made perfect for a nice minishred.

On our way there we picked up O-Matic Snowboards teamrider Thomas Schwarz (Germany) and photographer Said Burg.

Other teampeeps like Max Loos (Germany), Maya Gehrmann (Germany), and Robert Wallner (Austria) had already adventured there a few days before us.

During the qualification of the 4-star TTR event, Robert cracked his rib and had his only highlight saturday night when he had some cups, slept in a car of somebody he doesn’t know, with no permission, nor did they unlock it for him…

The Horsefeathers Pleasure Jam 08 ended with a sensational super-final. Blue skies, awesome vibes, happy faces all around and more than 2000 people visiting the Atomic Superpark Dachstein to cheer for the 18 starters of the super-final.  The riding-level was incredibly high and the riders showed some of the most technical tricks as expected.  Go to the Horsefeathers Pleasure Jam website to check a video of all the excitement.. 

Friday night we threw down a video premiere of Airblaster’s “August” movie in the mansion of Pleasure Mag.  ”August” is a new movie that everyone should check out!

In the end it was a really fun trip and great after parties that some peeps the following days weren’t able to function properly.
