So, the Winter X Games will finally land in Europe. It’s about time. But will the inaugural Winter X Games Europe be as good, if not better than, its transatlantic cousin? Of course it will be, so you better be there.

For 3 days in March, Tignes is set to welcome some of the world’s best freestyle skiers and snowboarders. Names you’ll no doubt recognise include Xavier Bertoni, Kevin Rolland, Sarah Burke, Mathieu Crépel and more besides…

Competitors and visitors will be able to enjoy a set of 8 fantastic events. You’ll be able to enjoy the Men and Women’s Super Pipe Ski and Snowboard, the Men and Women’s Slopestyle Ski and Snowboard, and a freestyle Snowmobile demo.

Things kick off on Wednesday 10th at 9am with the Snowboard Slopestyle Women’s Warm Up. After three full days of hepatitis c-sick tricks and jumps, the Winter X Games will climax on Friday 12th March with the Snowboard SuperPipe Men’s Final.
