Hello everybody!
Though this is summer time (in northern hemisphere!), we are preparing season 2017-2018, as well as our 15-years anniversary!
Some of you would like to already know the dates of the next "ExtremeCarving Session", the original event by Swoard and the EC founders. It has become so popular thanks to your enthusiasm, resulting in the spread of EC worldwide.
After 15 years, we still feel the need to explain/demonstrate our technique and philosophy, based on surfing, hips rotation, "push-pull"... and specific gear (original EC boards, modified boots, flat and soft bindings).Join us for the 15-years anniversary and the party! The timing will be good with public full release of 3 new models, available for testing in all sizes and all flexes (along to our custom-like concept).
If you are now an experienced EC rider, join us to share good souvenirs, great riding together, and to help newcomers.
If it's your first Session, don't worry about the black slopes of Zinal, there are some easy slopes too. Above all you will benefit a lot from riding with the others and the Swoard EC instructors (free lessons).
The dates of the "15th ExtremeCarving Session: Swoard ECS 2018" in Zinal (Switzerland) are: Jan 27th to 29th, 2018 ! This is the main and most popular event of the "Swoard Demo Tour"
The dates of the 4 other events (in Austria, France and Italy) are given here. Book as soon as possible your hotel in Zinal or Grimentz (the resorts are connected by a gondola)! The villages are small... Click here. It is also possible to rent an apartment for 3-4 days only! The estate agencies are here. Please, no registration for now! No package purchase for now!All details will be given in October when the Reservation Center will be ready.
Program, packages prices, etc. will be communicated at this moment.
Hard boots and soft boots are both welcome. We love all aspects of this sport. In addition to the excellent pistes, there is a nice freeride area in Zinal.
Families and friends with skis are welcome of course and can register too.
For now, we wish you great summer and autumn! Be ready in good shape for next season!
The Swoard team
