SET-UP
Big Air & Rails
The main kicker will be similar to last year and will be massive and very stylish; the longer in-run will be again undisturbed from the start gate. Depending on snow conditions, the plan ist to make the kicker bigger and longer to have you guys throw down triples…The bottom feature will be a creative, fun and also challenging rail feature with 3-4 different options. Here’s a first sneak preview:
Halfpipe
The halfpipe will be the same height as usual in Davos, but with the later date, we will have enough snow to build an halfpipe that is top notch in terms of height and transitions.
