Whitestyle 2010

Accreditation, course access & contact info
Essentials: Event & date
The White Style is the one and only mountain bike slopestyle contest
worldwide. 2010 is marks the event’s fifth anniversary.
Date: January 29th, one day event, Qualifications in the afternoon and
finals late evening (detailed schedule following).
Overall prize money: 4.000 Euros
Location, course & riders
The White Style is held next to Leogang’s town centre, at the Schantai
slope and ski lift station. The address for your GPS-Navigation-Device:
Leogang 4, 5771 Leogang, Austria.
Grant „Chopper“ Fielder is again in charge of the course design. He built
a set up consisting of:
A start section with two different parallel drops (a high one and a lower
one with a kicker on it), followed by two massive doubles made
completely of snow, but also featuring a second wooden kicker for the
ones who prefer a shorter transition to throw down big tricks. The second
half of the course begins with a decent step up to roller and kicker step
down combination, just like a fruit bowl, which is not too big, but
provides the perfect speed for a more challenging satellite dish step up
step down combo that guarantees some more airtime for big tricks. The
most spectacular obstacle is the final big hitter, which marks the end of
the course: A huge snowboard big air style kicker.
