Blue Tomato Kids Day 2019 at Superpark Planai
13.02.2019

56 kids, 2 groups and at least as much progression: That was this year’s Blue Tomato Kids Day on 9th February at Superpark Planai! All riding levels were present, starting from very first turns to stomped jumps and everything in between. Anyway, the Blue Tomato coaches took care of the young freestyle fans’ safety, fun and progression.

The day started at 9am: All kids who did not own any equipment were given snowboards by Burton and boots by DeeLuxe. Plus, every young gun, and those who aspire to be one, got a free lift ticket.

Boots, board, ticket and GO!

Due to the big number of participants, the kids were split into two groups – advanced riders and beginners. The latter learned their very first turns in a sectioned area: “Today was my first time standing on a snowboard and I’ve already learned so many new things. I have to keep practicing my left turn though”, little Julia said. The more advanced riders on the other hand, have been training in the Superpark or in the Funslope Planai. The coaches made sure that each and every participant practiced, what they wanted to.

Lunch at Kessleralm

The kids refueled their energy during lunch at Kessleralm from 12pm to 1pm. Also, Blue Tomato supplied the little freestylers with free drinks and little treats, in order to make sure everyone’s set for a second session. In the afternoon, the kids kept on practicing and some even managed to stomp their very first tricks!

Today’s a great day to snowboard. Some of the kids just started snowboarding and others are already advanced! But the one thing they all share is motivation!”, coach Nicola said. “Coaching was so much fun because all of the kids were super excited just like their parents! Snowboarding is cool, the kids love it and I’m happy about that!”

Group shot, certificate and goodie bags

The session ended with a group shot at Kessleralm and afterwards, the crowd headed back to the Blue Tomato shop. At the shop, the kids were awaited by a little surprise. Blue Tomato had prepared sick goodie bags and a certificate for each participant! That’s how a super fun coaching day came to an end which might have sparked a passion for freestyle in the one or other young rider!

Here we would like to show you a Vimeo video.

We thank everyone who came to join us on this year’s Blue Tomato Kids Day at Superpark Planai. We hope you had as much fun as the Blue Tomato coaches!
