RED BULL KRONPLATZ CROSS 10 Feb - 11 Feb 2012Location: Kronplatz, Valdaroa-Olang (Gassl) Time: starting from 6.30 pm
Thrills galore at Kronplatz!
Another spectacular competition at Kronplatz: the ski cross night race, a cutting-edge relay race.
It's the Red Bull Kronplatz Cross debut event in South Tyrol. On 10 and 11 February 2012, Kronplatz will be the venue of the very first of a series of breath-taking ski cross events sponsored by Jeep®, the legendary synonym for off-road and outdoor fun.
For the Red Bull Kronplatz Cross race, several teams of skiers have to first master a steep slope and then make their way past a number of obstacles to get to the finish line. But to make the event really spectacular, the traditional ski cross discipline has had to undergo a "makeover": On 10 February, three teams at a time will compete to qualify for the four-team finals the evening after. The contest is open to everyone. However, because of the difficulty level of the slope, all participants must be good skiers... and of course dare-devils!
