Description
We are very proud to present the Highline Freestyle World Cup in Les Arcs!
Twenty-four athletes (12 men and 12 women) will compete in this event for a total prize pool of 4,000 €:
€900 for 1st place, €600 for 2nd, €300 for 3rd, and €200 for 4th.
The top 6 athletes in the ISA rankings (based on the last 3 years, including results from Poland) will automatically qualify; the others will have to go through a selection process (the “wild card” system).
Qualifying rounds will take place from mid-September to mid-November.
The competition will be held in the main square of Arc 2000, with a breathtaking view of the Aiguille Rouge and Mont Blanc. Four parallel courses will be set up: two measuring 74 m and two measuring 68 m. The men will compete on one pair of courses, and the women on the other.
The exact layout is yet to be determined and will be communicated to the qualified athletes.
The format will consist of head-to-head “battles,” with one small twist: there will be no on-site qualifying rounds; instead, there will be four groups of three athletes who will compete against each other. The winner of each group will advance to the semifinals.
We’re really looking forward to this event and hope you’re just as excited as we are!
