Snowboarding & Freestyle

The two halfpipes of Vuokatti make practising snowboarding possible all year round. The pipe of the indoor hall is slightly smaller than the outdoor pipe and therefore excellent for learning snowboarding and refining tricks. Nearly all of Finland’s best snowboarders have sprung out of the pipes of Vuokatti: Peetu Piiroinen, Markus Malin and Enni Rukajärvi. The halfpipe, which meets the Olympic criteria, international-level coaches and fantastic training conditions make Vuokatti a training place for the present and the future.
