Postponing of the ENGADINSNOW by Dakine

The ENGADINSNOW by Dakine will take place from the 27th – 30th March 2017

The snow cover off the slopes and the strong wind in the past days and weeks have caused circumstances too dangerous for the freeride event to be held. The thickness and structure of the snow cover vary in different areas, leading to unpredictable conditions. Underneath the thin snow cover, rocks and cliffs are hidden, representing large health risks for the freeriders. Any accidents in such conditions can cause serious injuries.
After another inspection of the circumstances, the organizing committee, together with the team of mountain guides and some elite freeriders, has decided that for safety purposes the freeride event will be held at a later date.
