Shops 1st Try: Registration Call For Brands

SHOPS 1ST TRY celebrates its 10th anniversary in 2019! It has become the most important B2B event for snowboard retailers in Europe over the last 9 years! The concept of a high-quality event consisting of testing, highlight exhibition and joint dinner as well as the 100% focus on retailers has proven its worth over the years. The organizers will remain true to these values in 2019 and create a coherent and, above all, useful event for snowboard retailers.

SHOPS 1st TRY is an on snow test event exclusively for European snowboard retailers.

Goal of the event is to give buyers and shop owners an opportunity to test and compare products of the 2017/18 season before they order.

The event is based on the initiative of leading snowboard brands, the EUROSIMA Snow Division (European Surf Industry Manufactures Association) and the board sport business magazine SOURCE. The concept and organisation is realized by one of the leading agencies in actionsport, the munich based company munchie Konsilium GmbH.

Last year 89 brands showed their upcoming products to 202 participating shops from 11 countries. As Italy has to cancel their well known PRO SHOP TEST, we expect even more retailers from Italy to join the event. The strongest countries are of course Germany and Austria followed by Poland, Switzerland, BeNeLux, Great Britain, Czech, Norway and Finland.
