Grandvalira – freestyle capital of the world?

With a range of vertical jumps, kickers and one of Europe’s best pipes – Grandvalira in the Pyrenees has long been established as the place to go for freestyle skiers and boarders.
Josep Carbonell ‘Hurry’ joins the Grandvalira Team Freestyle and when you add a new kickers line in El Tarter – you’ve got a hotly-anticipated freestyle season. And it’s all set to kick off this weekend…
The 2009/10 ski season has started well in the Pyrenees. Grandvalira is currently operating with 100% of its facilities open – so that’s 193km of skiable piste. In the next few days, the area’s three freestyle areas will open for what should be another fantastic season. Don’t miss out – you can even learn the best tricks at the Ski and Snowboard School in Pas de la Casa.
