We’re here in La Clusaz, France for the 2020 Rock On Snow Pro, where retailers from France, UK, Switzerland and Belgium come to test snowboarding products before placing their orders. Despite a lack of snowfall in recent weeks, the pistes are in good shape for testing and after lunchtime the snow softened up. Here’s our images from day one.
