Today at noon to everyone's delight all lovers of active recreation and winter sports in Lvov “Na Volakh” Park will be opened a snow park and for the first time will be held the Ukrainian snowboarding tournament Snowboard & New School JIB contest “The Battle for Lvov”.
This year's competition “The Battle for Lvov” will attract all lovers of jibbing - one of the types of snowboarding, which is an expression of urban youth snow-culture. Jibbing is snowboarding according with a variety of obstacles, which are the copies of elements of small architectural forms of the city such as handrails, ramps or parapets. The advantage of this style is that it does not require a lot of snow and large areas for skiing. Especially for "The Battle for Lvov" the organizers have prepared some obstacles: 8 meter «flat box» and 6 meter «down rail».
