PRESS RELEASE
It's absolutely an unprecedented final but surely interesting the one that's scheduled for the ‘Bràulio Vertical Tour 2013’. Because to go out with style the tour has planned two events close in a few days in Valtellina, a land that has always been intimate with snowboard and freestyle and that will host the last two Contests, final included. The tour will be in Bormio on March 9 and 10 while for the big final it will move to Livigno on March 13.
The stop in Bormio is expected to be special from many points of view. For instance because it's always been one of most followed of the ‘Bràulio Vertical Tour’ and also because here the tonic liquor Bràulio, title sponsor of the Tour, plays home. The events on the agenda will be a lot and the key moment will be represented by the Contest which will at night time from 8 p.m. on Saturday March 9. The kicker for snowboarders and freestylers will be placed at the Ski Stadium at the bottom of the Stelvio slope, the one that every year hosts the Men's DH of the FIS Ski World Cup. The Contest will display some of the best snowboarders and freeskiers among Europe starting with the brand new Italian National Team of Slopestyle which is taking part to the World Cup and is aming the Sochi Olympics 2014.
‘Bràulio Vertical Tour 2013’ is bringing other attractions beyond the Contest. For two days, indeed, the Village of the Tour will be in Bormio 2000. In the first row you will find the liquor Bràulio for which is a comeback since it hails right from Bormio. At its big stand in the center of the Villaggio you will taste the hot version of it of you will drink it on the rocks. The liquor will also arrive to the mountain huts thanks to the ‘Bràulio girls’. Also don't misse the après ski party at ‘BeWhite Après ski’, by the bottom station of the cableway Bormio-Bormio 2000, from 5.30 to 7.30 pm on Saturday March 9 and the ‘Bràulio Vertical Night’ at ‘Zeta Pub’, (in front of the Ski Stadium) after the freestyle contest by 10.30 pm.
At the Village you will not only find Amaro Bràulio but also all the products by Latte Candia and Entremont. You will have the chance to drink some nice hot milk or to taste the ‘raclette’, an interesting dicover, accompanied with other food brought to you by salumi Beretta and Panmonviso.
