Dear plankers, we salute you!

 

The World Snowboard Day Team is pleased to announce the PLANKING contest with your snowboarding gear on Facebook.

 

PLANKING is a recent fad, which is quickly gaining popularity. It consists of posing for a picture lying face down in incongruous or unusual locations.

 

To make the WSD 2012 more memorable, participate in the contest simply by posting your best pictures of planking with your snowboarding gear on the World Snowboard Day Facebook page here: http://on.fb.me/12F8EoO   

 

There will be close to 3 000 € in prizes to be won, kindly donated by GoPro, Völkl, Ride snowboards and Billabong.

 

One last tip: remember to be original and funny!

As you probably know, Anne-Flore Marxer, Freeride World Champion, is our official ambassador for this 7th edition.

To help you wait for her official program of World Snowboard Day on Sunday, December, 30th, here is a short message from her to you: See Anne-Flore's message
