F I S World Cup Para Snowboard Crazy Curves 2025

In 2025 (1 + 2 February) there will be a F I S WELTCUP in PARA Snowboard in Kühtai for the first time.

Together with the FIS PARA World Cup coordinator and Bergbahnen Kühtai, the TI Snow team has selected an ideal slope for the Banced Cross Slalom that perfectly meets the requirements of this World Cup competition. As a result, the FIS recently awarded the contract!
Para snowboarding is a very young, up-and-coming sport and was represented for the first time at the 2014 Winter Games in Sochi. It exclusively pits athletes with lower and upper limb impairments against each other in a race against the clock. Athletes with leg amputations use a prosthesis to practise their sport. A particular challenge for athletes with upper limb impairments is controlling their balance.
In the Banced Cross Slalom, the athletes navigate a course with banked turns, hills and jumps. They have three attempts to qualify for the final. The fastest run is included in the ranking.
With World Cup stops all over the world (Finland, Netherlands, Germany, Italy, Canada), it is the first competition of its kind in Austria in this young, up-and-coming sport.
TI Snow - which has more than 25 years of experience in alpine, cross and freestyle competitions - will enter the world of Paralympic skiing for the first time with the contest in Kühtai.
