HOCHFÜGEN, Austria. The Zillertal ski area of Hochfügen will host the RideON ShredFest from 4 to 6 December 2026. The event bills itself as “the snow get-together for everyone” and is built on three ideas: test, connect, celebrate.
Test the gear on snow
Visitors can try equipment from more than 50 brands directly on the slopes. Organizers list innovative board shapes, new binding technology, comfortable boots, functional goggles and lightweight kids’ gear among the things on offer. The brand lineup includes Burton, Salomon, K2, Jones, Lib Tech, Never Summer, Nitro, Arbor, Capita, Head, Oakley, Smith and Scott. The festival is open to all riding levels.
Meet the riding world
The “World of Riding” area is meant as a meeting point for brands, pros, coaches, guides, media, associations, youth programs and destinations. Culture and travel partners include Method Mag, Snowboard Intl, Splitboard Festival, Shred Kids, Free Ride Center Zillertal, ELOA Camps & Adventures, Longboard Classic, risk’n’fun and YETI.
Packed schedule, with a party on Saturday
