With the snow falling hard and fast around the world, and several resorts opening already, it’s time for the TTR to head back up to the Northern Hemisphere. The first major event in the calender is the 4-star Horsefeathers Pleasure Jam, which will be taking place on the Dachstein Glacier this weekend.

Many of Europe’s best riders will be looking to get a good result early on to set themselves up for the rest of the season, so some big names – including Eero Ettala, Markus Keller, Stefan Gimpl and Juuso Lavisto are expected to be there. Young Lewis Courtier-Jones will be flying the flag for the UK. On the girl’s side, the field includes the likes of Cheryl Maas and Sarka Pancochova.

With the Atomic Superpark up on the Dachstein glacier being whipped into shape as we speak, it looks like the competition looks like its gonna go off in a big way. Whitelines will be heading over there to bring you the lowdown on all the action, as and when it happens.
