Freeriding: world's only parallel freeride!

Engadinsnow 2020

January/February, 2020, St. Moritz-Silvaplana (Switzerland)

ENGADINSNOW is one of the longest-running freeride competitions in the Alps. Apart from its long tradition, this event classic has always been all about innovation: it is the world’s only parallel freeride event. Teams of two riders will ride simultaneously the Corvatsch north face and compete with other teams - after each heat, the winning team qualifies for the next round. At this exciting knockout format, the judges will not only reward the difficulty of the line and the airs as well as a fluid riding style, but also the overall impression of both riders together. That’s why snowboarders and skiers have to rethink their normal strategies: they have to show a great line for themselves but also convince the judges together with their team partner.
