Scandinavian Team Battle at CopenHill returns for the fourth time this summer and the world's biggest dry-slope competition is not slowing down. With a high-level slopestyle course, a huge crowd cheering on the skiers, and Copenhagen summer vibes it will be a hell...
From 24th-26th May, tune your social media addicted eyeballs to the Mölltaler Glacier as Horsefeathers' Snowpark hosts Daniel Hanka's brand new event, The Spring Thing. Or better yet, get yourself there because Dan and his crew, promise an unforgettable few days of shred. It's probably the last...
The vision for the re-emergence of the Silver Belt was simple: create a competition-like environment but remove the high-intensity pressure on the athletes. Then, have the best skiers in the world come to partake. Yes, there are still podium spots, but when the athletes are judged by their...
It's spring, which of course means it's insane here at the Newschoolers office. Red Bull events, SuperUnknown, Gear Week and now Kimbo Sessions have us all scattered across the globe watching the best of the best in skiing. Nestled in the midst of the madness was a weekend like no other, an...

You know how sometimes there’s that one friend you invite to stay for a night and somehow, years later, they’re still living on your couch? Yep, that’s kind of what we’ve done at Sunshine Village (@ShredSSV...
Nothing is quite like Unrailistic. The craziest rail features, the world's best rail skiers, and some total curveballs. It's a clever event too, it's pretty out there but unlike the invitational contests (Kimbo, SuperUnknown) and big bucks events (Nines etc), it really does translate to...
On the 25th and 26th of April, the world’s freeskiing elite will convene to compete on Jesper Tjäder’s ultimate course at the much-anticipated Red Bull Unrailistic event in Åre. X-Games and Olympic medalist Jesper Tjäder promises an array of even more audacious and sizable rails designed to push...
It’s hardly a secret that we’ve adopted Sunshine Village as our collective home resort (or perhaps they have adopted us). Spring is blooming now and it's slushy in the park so it’s the perfect time to get sendy.
We’re putting $2k on the line again as King and Queen of the Park returns to...
Spring is here, World Cups are done and largely forgotten, which means the real contest season begins. By which I mean the ones the athletes actually enjoy going to. And, as a big fan of the event, stoked is an understatement for when I got the call from Red Bull telling me they wanted to fly me...

Jesper Tjäder is known for his crazy ideas, creativity and video game level of rail skiing skills. In 2016, filming for Supervention 2 Jesper completed a looped rail, a crazy feat we've only really seen in SSX or other domains of the virtual world. For...
In a move that has left the global skiing community baffled and expectant in equal measure, the Saudi Arabian government has announced its newest global sporting venture: the Seven Wonders Big Air Tour. Following the unexpected media success of the Snowblast KSA Cup in Riyadh, the Saudi...
During the last comp of the season, among the clouds and wind in Silvaplana, and with the knowledge that the snowboard slopestyle went down yesterday in pretty perfect conditions, we got to enjoy a few hours of weather hold and time to reflect. Overall, it feels like this has been a season has...

A beautiful day for slopestyle, saw a slightly slushy course absolutely crushed by the women and men of slopestyle skiing. Unlike Big Air, there is still one event to go in slopestyle but it was still one heck of a show, on what used to be the EuroX Games course. Tignes is...
The final Big Air event of the season went down in Tignes this evening (Euro evening). The riders like this event, and the show was spectacular, and it showed in the riding. There were a whole lot of stomps, a whole lot of wild tricks and everyone seemed to be having fun. Shot of the day had to...
We're stoked to be bringing The PBR Session to Banff Sunshine Village for the fourth time, running April 5th-7th, 2024.
The PBR (Pro Bowl Riding) brings a unique and creative course to the Canadian Rockies. Skiers will have 3 days to learn, ride, and film on the private course. The @ShredSSV...
