A Day Of Boarding Celebration

Nearly five decades after founding Burton, Jake Burton Carpenter’s impact continues to shape snowboarding. On March 14, 39 resorts will honour his legacy through A Day For Jake a global invitation to simply get out and ride. “Less about ceremony and more about participation. It’s a day to get on snow. To ride with friends. To watch snowboard films, tune your gear, and revisit your favorite riding spots,” a Burton spokesperson said, adding, “If you can’t celebrate at a resort—that’s ok. Go surf.

I am both an experienced snowboarder and skier. Spent a week in Gstaad. Snow was not the best as it had not snowed for 10 days when I got there. Then, on our second day, it snowed a bit (about 5cm). Snowmaking is decent in Eggli; very good in Schonried and terrible in Glacier 3000. If it hasn't snowed the week before the day you intend to ski, do not bother visiting Glacier 3000, except for pictures. As it is higher up, they probably don't think snowmaking is that necessary there. However, after a week without snow, the very cold weather makes everything hard as a stone. Loved the resort overall but there's a lot of driving as the city is not close enough to any of these three largest mountains. If you're into nightlife, that is not the place to go. Good restaurants, but very few options for bars and clubs.
