“Damn, the contest went well,” said Ettala. “I got 1st place, which is always sick, and kind of won it out of the blue. I ended up doing a backside 1080 late cork, first time ever trying that trick, never mind landing it!”

Oakley’s 1242 Productions, in cooperation with Friday Productions announced today the upcoming release of Tracking Eero, a multi-media collaboration, which includes a television series, webisodes and a documentary video, all starring world renowned snowboarder Eero Ettala.

Two weeks, two countries, big jumps and big riders. Late season sessions are on. Check the Zoom Gallery.

Our adventure continued from Solden, Austria to Laax, Switzerland, which all of us were excited to visit for many reasons, but namely the new Rocks Resort we would be staying in. The Rocks Resort is a brand new addition to Laax, the buildings are designed to be very modern day apartments varying in size from two to four bedrooms. The apartments have all the luxuries one could need from heated stone floors throughout to a rain shower to a full kitchen to beautiful views of the Alps.
