About:

Slopestyle Elite International Event.

Event guide:

At the end of March, freeski and snowboard pros from all over the world meet at Absolut Park for the Spring Battle, where they celebrate their season’s end with an innovative contest and showcase their skills on the demanding setup. The Spring Battle is a World Snowboarding Elite Level and an AFP Gold Event, but even so, fun and creativity are a priority at this relaxed jam session. The follow-cam format is super popular with the athletes; any registered rider handing in an uncut video in time, documenting his or her best run, will be judged. Riders can film each other for a couple of days, and therefore have enough time to step up their trick levels.

Since its inaugural edition in 2002, AbsolutPark’s SpringBattle has always used creative and constantly changing event formats. An ever-evolving, up-to-date contest mode in full tune with the zeitgeist.

For this year’s SpringBattle, we returned to our roots, finally bringing back Slopestyle as the main event category! A full top-to-bottom run, embedded in the very heart of AbsolutPark’s Pro Kicker Line. The Slopestyle is fully WSF-sanctioned, counting as an WSPL Elite Level event.

Besides the Slopestyle, we will continue to hold two extra categories: ‘Best Trick Rail’ with its very own rail setup right next to the Pro Kicker Line and the ‘Best 540’ category that can also be joined from everywhere in the world through our online event platform.
The total Prize Purse for this year’s event will be insane 110.000US$!

Once again, SpringBattle 2024 will welcome the world’s best women and men in freeskiing and snowboarding, as well as anyone who wants to compete against them. Unlike any other contest, SpringBattle offers plenty of time for the competitors to film their very best riding possible throughout the full duration of the event.
The best clips of the submitted slopestyle runs and individual tricks will be judged by a board of professional ski- and snowboard judges by the end of the week.
