Watch out for some spectacular freestyle action from 13-18 April 2020 as the amazing ‘Audi Nines’ returns to Sölden and Obergurgl in Austria.
This will be the 12th year of the ‘Audi Nines’ and it looks like it will be better and bigger than ever.
These freestyle athletes taking part will be pushing themselves to the limits in an unbelievable snowpark, designed specifically and uniquely for this event.
Watch in Obergurgl and Sölden
The ‘Audi Nines’ kicks off with a Night Shoot on Wednesday 15 April near Obergurgl, which is open for the public to watch.
The actual Contest Day is Saturday 18 April and takes place in Sölden.
Athletes
Take the Lead in Course Design
The course has been designed by the athletes themselves. At a
brainstorming session in Innsbruck, Austria, the freestyle athletes came up with
their own ideas for outstanding course design.
“The venues in Sölden and Obergurgl are setting new standards for design in snow,” said ‘Audi Nines’ founder Nico Zacek.
“Expect to see incredible action in Big Air and Slopestyle-influenced settings, as well as pioneering new features, like ‘The Wormhole,’ that will simply challenge your understanding of physics.”
Turning daydreams into reality…
Austrian rider Clemens Millauer reckons the ‘Audi Nines’ means you can turn “daydreams into reality” and your “doodles into your riding playground.”
British rider James ‘Woodsy’ Woods believes the ‘Audi Nines’ is “just in another league”.
“It’s why we all got into skiing and snowboarding,” said Woodsy. “There is so much opportunity to get banging content for the rest of the season.”
