Hello from Austria
Hi from a Hard- and Softboot carver from Austria. Happy to connect and exchange experiences, I still need to learn despite having carved for a long time (mostly self-taught). Youtube videos have helped me progress a lot and fix some deeply rooted mistakes I've been making, but would love some exchange about boards, technique, ...
where are you based?
Only a snowboarder knows this feeling. And once you've felt it for yourself, it's impossible not to want more. It's so addictive that it should be illegal, but it's not and that's why they make such good snowboards that after riding them you want to sell everything and move to the mountains, because a man has to have a balance in his life, and that balance should be 80% snowboarding and 20% working.
Hello, I do not know where Harald is based, but I am around Villach, soft-boot carving mostly at the Gerlitzen 😉
nice. And Gerlitzen is also nice, but too far for me. 🙃

Hi there!
Where do you actually prefer to ride? I'm thinking about Zillertal (tux, mayrhofen) and Schladming for the upcoming season, but I'm afraid that they are too crowded. Any better suggestions?
Maybe some of you know camps/events/good boarding schools to learn the proper technique. Surely, there are lots of self-taught carvers, like myself, who also might be interested in such events.
Myself: beginner level carver, deu based
Is somebody from "Kärnten" here??
Servus Daniel, yes I am located in Kärnten - Carinthia, most of the time I ride at the Gerlitzen.
Hello from Montafon, anyone from the surrounding?
Hi Guys, could you reccomend a carving instructor teaching on Austrian glaciers? I was thinking Stubai or Moelltaler but I will consider others.

@morgan I'm from Lower Austria, close to Vienna, but we always ride in the Oberpinzgau due to family ties. This Christmas I met a snowboard teacher on the slopes, who clearly was a highly capable rider who was properly teaching a small group of borders some advanced techniques. This was in the Bramberg/Neukirchen area (Wildkogel resort). Maybe you can get him on to the Kitzsteinhorn, that's just a 30 min drive... DM me if you are interested, I have his name and the name of the skiing school he was hailing from.
