Big Jumps & Big Air Action!

Big Jumps & Big Air Action!

Hotham has an action packed event weekend ahead!

International snowmobiling champion Jimmy Blaze will take flight at Hotham tonight showcasing his signature moves, in the air, on a snowmobile.

Come down to the front of The Team Hotham Clubhouse at the base of Hotham’s Summit at 5.45pm tonight to catch the Big Air action and fireworks display (weather dependent).

Last year Jimmy set the new flip record at the Winter X Games – a backflip on a snowmobile 121 feet in the air. He is a regular on the Discovery Channel’s Stunt Junkies show, showing off his distance backflips.

If that's not enough big air action for you, Hotham’s ‘À la Carte in the Park’ events will go back to back this weekend with the Pea Brain Soup Big Air on this afternoon at the Big D Colloseum (between the Big D lift line and CFA)  and the Beer Battered Rider X is set to take off this Sunday on Hotham’s Rider Cross Course (under the Roadrunner Chairlift).

Nightskiing is also on tongith at the Big D from 6.30pm with supervised sessions available for kids. Younger kids can join in the fun of Harry the Snowdragon’s live show, 4pm at The Big D.

Come on up for the weekend to enjoy the snowiest August since 1992, and a natural snowdepth of 181cm.
