Welcome to the future of winter sports competition.
The inaugural season of The Snow League will showcase the world’s top winter sports athletes going head-to-head in multiple halfpipe events at some of the most iconic resort locations in the world.
The Snow League will employ the most innovative and exciting formats in winter sports starting with Season One. Athletes will compete to accumulate points based on their results from each event to be tallied together at the end of the season to crown The Snow League World Champion.
Format Details – Snowboarding
- Qualifying Day will be broken into four heats of four or five athletes. The top four athletes on The Snow League points list will be selected into individual heats with the rest of the heat randomly drawn based on current Snow League World Championship standings.
- Each athlete will take two runs with the highest run counting. The victor in each heat advances to Finals Day. The second and third place athletes from each heat will get a second chance to qualify with a two run Last Chance Qualifier.
- The Last Chance Qualifier is the final opportunity for riders to make it to Finals Day. The remaining eight will have best one additional run to improve on their best run of the day to make it to the championship bracket. The top four will be paired up with other qualified athletes from the heats on Finals Day.
- Finals Day will pit athlete against athlete in a best two of three run, head-to-head format. Each athlete must drop into both the right and left hand wall in their first two runs. The first athlete to win two runs will advance to the next round.
- The athlete that wins each of their head-to-head matchups will claim the title in each event and take home their share of the prize purse split equally between genders.
