Horsefeathers King of S.N.O.W. - Round 1

For anybody new to the conversation, BestTrick.com and Horsefeathers are sponsoring this years King of S.N.O.W. competition. The contest, which is basically just a giant game of S.N.O.W., is done entirely online; just film your trick, upload it to http://www.King-of-Snow.com, and hope you've got the skills to climb the rankings. Prizes are given for individual round victories, and a final cash basket of $5000 US Dollars plus worldwide exposure to the overall winner.

Now for the sweet news! Even though the contest starts next week, the folks over at BestTrick.com have given the go ahead to release the first round's trick for everyone entering this crazy contest. Nothing too fancy here... Horsefeathers/Isenseven team rider Rene Schnöeller wants you to bust your steeziest Frontside 180:

Round 1: FS 180 set by Rene Schnöeller (AUT)

This rounds winner gets to shred the rest of their season in a new Horsefeathers Polaris Jack and R2D2 Beanie... a pretty nice prize package for such a simple trick, but remember to win it your 180 has to top other talented riders from around the world!

Let's face it though, we can't all head up to the hill every week to film and upload one trick at a time. New this year, the folks at BestTrick.com want you to be able to knock out a few rounds worth in one trip to the slopes. So, without further ado here are all of the tricks through Round 4...

Round 2: BS 180 set by Tomas Tuzar (CZE)
Round 3: FS 360 set by Honza Zajic (CZE)
Round 4: FS 540 set by Michael Zirngibl (GER)

There you have it. If you haven't already, head to http://www.king-of-snow.com to register your free account.

Now, get up to your local slope and get on that filming! The first round will be open for submissions on December 28th, 2009.
