Meeting

Slopestyle and Big Air

Slopestyle and big air are two of the six disciplines of freestyle skiing.
In slopestyle, skiers link figures and tricks on a course made up of various modules such as rails, boxes and jumps. In Big Air, skiers perform acrobatic aerial tricks on a single ski jump, emphasising the height and technical nature of their performances.
