Snowboard training in Sierra Nevada (Spain)




Christmas holidays everyone relates them to rest, but for us it's time to workout.
The holidays of this year were special: we have returned to our dear Sierra Nevada.
Five years ago was when we went to Sierra Nevada the first time, someone told us about this place for its ski resort and its snowpark one of the best in Europe where go all professional to training this sport. Since then we had not returned, and it was time. As we had to train in the Christmas holidays, so it was in one of the best ski resorts in Europe.
On December 26 morning after many hours of travel we reached our hotel, we were located in our rooms, we put our snowboard  clothes and went straight to Borreguiles to start our week of training.
We started down a few times Veleta II warm-up exercise and then we headed to the snowpark.
We started with some Freestyle to adapt the track, then a gap to backside 270 boardslide, handplant and Nollie, and to finalize the morning workout we practice the Misti Flip.
It was nice to snowboard in new snow and in a snowpark so comfortable.
On January 1 we did the famous "night descent" after dinner of Years Eve. It was amazing, seemed film. We did what more we liked while we were enjoying the beautiful illuminated scenery.
At the end of the trip we achieved our goal: improving the 900 Air.
I leave a video of our nocturnal descent and some pictures of our training.
