My name is Elena Koenz and I am a professional Snowboarder from Engadin, Switzerland. Leading a life close to nature and the mountains has inspired me to give back to preserve our mountains for future generations. This is why I am an ambassador for Protect Our Winters Switzerland.

For this season I was able to design my own pro model for West, the Swiss snowboard brand I ride for. The design is a result of a collaboration between the artist Rips1 and myself. This is my board I use all-day every day for playing on the slopes, jibbing and jumping and having fun.

As a small step in the right direction, I decided to donate 1% of revenue generated with the sale of this board to Protect Our Winters Switzerland. POW mobilizes the outdoor community against climate change. More information on http://www.protectourwinters.ch

I wish you an awesome season, go outside, enjoy the snow and don‘t forget to stay creative – @elenakoenz

Swiss Snowboard Girls Camp 2016

As every year at the end of the season, the best Swiss female snowboarders gathered at Corvatsch Park to ride with the younger generation. The 6th edition of the Swiss Snowboard Girls Camp was a blast! I helped as a Coach and it was fun to shred through the park with the kids and see them ripping!

Swiss Freestyle Champs

To end the season with a first place in the Slopestyle Swiss Championships was really nice.

The week during the Swiss Champs in Corvatsch was a lot of fun. We had the chance to ride a perfect park during the last days of the season and have a good time together with the team mates. After winning the Slopestyle competition I ended up second in “Pipestyle” and Big Air.
