ON-SNOW COMPETITION
The fun kicks off this weekend, 1-3 August, with the Hotham Masters and Victorian Alpine Champs – two events that come together to bring the older generation and rising talent together in the same arena.
The following weekend, 8-10 August sees more on-snow action with the long-standing Hotham Banked Slalom. Riders from professionals to weekend warriors come together in this fun event to test their skills. Skiers are not forgotten with the Hotham Hammer Moguls making a comeback to the roster. We're stoked to hold the event again and to see what this new generation of freestyle skiers are capable of on the new Moguls training location at the Big D.
Elite racing returns from Aug 13 and through the weekend as Australia’s best Ski Cross and Boarder Cross athletes return for the ANC Ski Cross and ANC Snowboard Cross. Get a glimpse of our Olympic hopefuls at the home of boardercross and the Olympic training centre here at Hotham.
Finally, we end the month with the return of the Oakley Slopestyle. Check our best freestyle skiers and rider’s throwdown in an event not to be missed – entries are now open!
