Clear the way for the 7th Suddenrush Banked Slalom LAAX 2022

Laax. March 5, 2022. This weekend in LAAX is all about steep turns, as 300 riders of all ages gather for the 7th edition of the SuddenRush Banked Slalom. They take on the challenging course with 23 steep turns and the goal of completing it as quickly as possible. The Master and Pro categories kicked things off, with many familiar faces on the podium, including Josh Dirksen (USA) and LAAX local Sina Candrian (SUI) as the winners of the Pro category. Josh says: "This is my first time at the Banked Slalom here in LAAX. A smooth course. A great day and great organization!" Day 2 features the Open categories, traditionally those with the most participants. The event concludes with the children, youth, and Fakie Race.

 

SuddenRush Banked Slalom LAAX is all about fun, friendship, and openness. It's about enjoying time together on the mountain on the one board that means the world to you. If you want to watch, just take piste 66 from Crap Sogn Gion towards Plaun.
