This is the first time that snowboarding and freestyle skiing will share the same stage at a FIS World Championships event.
SKI AND SNOWBOARD CROSS
Competitors race in groups of four with the top two going onto the next round. The course consists of a combination of jumps, turns and other terrain features. It is high speed and guarantees lots of thrills and spills! SKI AND SNOWBOARD HALFPIPECardrona was the first to build a 22ft Olympic standard half pipe in the Southern Hemisphere. The halfpipe competition takes place in a half-cylinder-shaped course dug deep into the hill. Using speed gained on the slope, snowboarders come up over the rim of the pipe and perform acrobatic aerial tricks. The object of the halfpipe is to perform difficult tricks with perfect form.
SKI AND SNOWBOARD SLOPESTYLE
Competitors perform tricks while descending the slopestyle course, moving around, over, across, or down terrain features. The course is full of obstacles of varying technical difficulty including boxes, rails, jumps and jibs. SNOWBOARD BIG AIR
Riders perform tricks after launching off a massive jump above the base buildings at Cardrona. Competitors perform tricks in the air, aiming to attain maximum height and difficulty, all while securing a clean landing. SNOWBOARD PARALLEL GIANT SLALOMLike the giant slalom in skiing, competitors must zig-zag between red and blue gates. These are shaped on an angle so competitors can lean into the turns.The event begins with a qualification stage, when riders race on their own against the clock and the top 16 go through to the knockout stage. Head-to-head rounds involve two races, with the rivals swapping sides after the first race to make sure neither receives an unfair advantage.
