THE FORMAT
This first stop is a little different. Snowboarders & freeskiers are split into four teams, competing across men's and women's halfpipe for the World Challenge title. The skiers and snowboarders are working together on this one. Below is more info on the team. This event stands outside The Snow League's individual World Championship points season.
Semifinals come with a 720-degree spin cap, putting focus on creativity & execution. The cap comes off for finals, where athletes can open things up. Points from all four disciplines are combined to determine the winning team.
