Anyone know about pond skimming season closing events in Austria? Will be around Kaprun-Salzburg in april and would love some spring swimming, but it seems not to be a popular thing in the alps... Only info I found on the net is about Obertauern (special event in the past and no longer happening) and See (maybe still happening but far from where I will be).

Maybe just not where you are.
Theres normally one every year in Plaine Dranse, also one I've been to in Switzerland in RiederAlp (Altesch) both in April.
Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

I know a few resorts in France do one, but way too little for a mountain with a 1000+ resorts...
Anyway, hope some local in the salzburg area will read this and let me know of the secret spots
We had one here in Morgins last year, a one-off event, although it wasn't perhaps as well publicised and attended as it might have been, possibly because it was at village level during normal piste-opening times. Not sure if they're going to repeat it this season.
yes, pond skim and water slide, water surf is the same. Basically a party for season closure - a water pond , some kickers around it, music, lots of fun. It is a popular thing in the states, not so much in Europe. http://youtube.com/v/Gzmrli2N_6M
And as it is usually not the big resorts , but smaller one with a strong local community that do those things though I will post here to see if anyone knows something
