This past New Zealand winter I was fortunate enough to be selected as one of six representatives from Snowboard Instruction New Zealand to go to Interski in Argentina, September 2015.

Over the next year, on the build-up to the event, I’ll be working closely with the other five guys on the Snowboard Team, as well as the selected Ski Team members and our one token Telemarker. We’ll be putting a lot of effort into planning various on-snow clinics and a rather intricate indoor presentation.

Along the way, we’ll be publishing a simple blog to share our accounts and help bring back our learnings to the NZSIA membership. Have a read of our first day getting together as Team Snowboard here.

About Interski

Interski International was founded in Arlberg (Austria) in 1951. Every four years Interski holds the world’s largest congress for the exchange of snowsports methodologies and techniques between the member nations.

For over 60 years Interski has made important contributions to developing and improving snowsports participation worldwide. Interski has 37 member countries, including all the leading northern and Southern Hemisphere alpine nations.

The six day congress is hosted by different member nations. In September 2015 the event will be held in Argentina at the Cerro Castor resort near Ushuaia… the first ever southern hemisphere Interski.
