The season is officially on. The crew headed to Stubai’s iconic Prime Park Sessions to shake off the rust, stack clips, and send some seriously heavy tricks – all high above the Alps at one of the best pre-season training grounds on Earth.
Prime Park Sessions is where the world’s best show up to get dialed in before winter hits full swing. Massive kickers, perfectly shaped rails, and glacier views at 3,000 meters make it the ultimate playground for early-season progression.
This time around, Dope Snow riders Juho Saastamoinen, steepsteep and Juan Bolinger linked up for a few days of laps, rails, crashes, powder turns, and plenty of stoke as everyone shook off the summer legs and got back into flow.
Stubai delivered a mix of everything – big storm snow, flat light, sketchy landings, and pockets of perfect powder. Even when the Prime Line closed thanks to weather, the smaller jumps and rails kept the vibe going.
One of the standout moments? Juho stepping up and dropping a clean, stomped triple cork 1800 – a proper early-season hammer and a statement for everything that’s coming this winter.
If this is how things begin, winter is looking bright. Fresh legs, fresh snow and a crew already pushing limits. The season is only just warming up and there is plenty more heading your way, so stay tuned.
