The guys from the Zecrü crew just presented the trailer for their new film “Heartbeats”. With their movie, the crew around Zimtstern Snowboard Team Rider Helene Nadig prooves you can make something great happen without big budget if you have commitment, ambition and are prepared to invest lots of time. Watch the crew hit all terrain in a movie made in Switzerland with love. The official movie release party will take place on December 9, 2011 in the Riders Palace in Laax. Be there or be square!
Zimtstern Snowboard Team Rider Helen Nadig and her boyfriend spent some weeks in the USA and came back with some beautiful shots! Here she tells what she loves about Amiland.
“How good was our vacation in the USA. Started in Seattle and drove down to L.A. After some sightseeing in Seattle and Portland we decided to go camping with the deers and bears…
Camping lake
…Mt. Hood, Crater Lake and two stops at the westcoast in the redwood national state park…
Mt. Hood
…Can you imagine USA without burgers, fries and shakes? Yes we did. Always cooked our delicious meals over the fire: pasta, rice, veggies…
Camping food
…Ok, a crazy crunchy donut for dessert was in, sometimes…
California
…After some summer/winter time in San Francisco we cruised down to L.A.: Venice Beach, our favorite spot…
Dogtown
…You can skate, surf,…
Bike Cruise
…bike, run, swim, basketball, tennis, do exercise, whatever you prefer it’s awesome…
Red Hot Chili Peppers
…And if you are lucky you will see some famous musicians or actors. 1 hour in Venice and we already got a shot of the making of the „Red Hot Chili Peppers – The Adventures Of Rain Dance Maggie“ videoclip and a little concert for free!..
Hollywood
…Our private Beverly Hills, Bel Air and the Hollywood sightseeing tour was pretty cool too. Thank you Zibbs…
Calilove
…And sadly we are already back in Swissi now. But it’s nice here too!”
Last weekend Zimtstern Snowboard Team Rider Helene Nadig traveled to Innsbruck to rough up the Austrian Snowboarders at the Austrian Masters 2011. And she won the women’s competition in front of the German Legend Conny Bleicher and the local Tanja Baumgartner. Let’s see on thursday how that win affects her TTR rank!
The Zimtstern Snowboard Team, namely Clemens Schattschneider, Linus Birkendahl & Helene Nadig performed at their best!
Helene with clean and high runs, qualified for the Womens Halfpipe Semi Finals, but then didn’t make it into the top 10 to enter the finals.
Linus went big and sticked his first fs900 at a competition. He only missed the Mens HP Semi Finals by one rank.
And Clemens qualifying for the Slopestyle finals, all the way from the open qualifications, just blew everyone’s mind away with some extremely high, boned double cork 1080ies. Too bad that he didn’t hit the pole in the jib part and then grabbed the snow… Who knows on what position he would have ended up otherwise!
Helene Nadig was using the bluebird holidays for some pipe training at her home resort in Laax and wishes “a happy new year to the Zimtstern Crew, Team and all Zimtstern lovers, don’t get to “HIGH” like me ”.
Many thanks to Christophe Pons for that lovely pipe shot!
What a sick battle! The riders at the Junior Open in Laax had to deal with heavy weather conditions: Strong winds made the halfpipe super icy and on top of that fog showed up on Sunday. Don’t worry, the young bloods didn’t give-up and perfomed at their best.
We are stoked on the results of the Zimtstern Snowboard Team:
Our Austrian style master Clemens Schattschneider was third in the U20 category and
Linus Birkendahl was faced with his strongest rivals: Tim-Kevin Ravnjak and David Hablützel in the U16-category. After an incredibly impressive run he won the quali. In the finals he was third behind the Swiss and the Slovenian
.
For the women there was no age limit and so Helene Nadig could proof her skills in the field of the young girls. She was 2nd in the women’s elite category.
What a party, what a madness, what a celebration! – the party at the Zimtstern tent was just insane!
Due to the pretty unfriendly weather on saturday (the rain was coming down in sheets!!) the freestyle.ch crowd was gathering in the Zimtstern tent. The skaters had some fun sessions in the bowl and at 4pm latest, when DJ Nixon started to turn the tables, the party was on and only got crazier with every hour. The DJs Drifter&Mortensen and the Wax Wreckaz found a warmed-up party folk when they arrived a little later.
Who wanted to win a Zimtstern jacket or an other rad price had to bet with the clowns and spin the wheel of torture. Some guys were lucky, some not – and left the party with a new haircut, a fancy cake in the face, ketch-uppy hair or honey in the pants.
Check out the gallery and have fun – a movie is coming soon.
