At the top station of the Kreuzeck cable car the TV teams and bloggers got the chance to try out the products ISPO AWARD and ISPO BRANDNEW-Winner of the year 2016 – directly, which is to say, even before ISPO MUNICH and many months before the products will then be available on the market to end consumers in the season 2016/17.
