Nike Snake & Hammers Is Back For 2014!

PROS AND AMATEURS GO HEAD-TO-HEAD IN THIS BANKED SLALOM/SLOPESTYLE MASH-UP EVENT!

Alternative comps have been cropping up all over the place this fortnight – with Danny Davis winning the Arctic Challenge and summer shred going on up at Morzine’s Rhythm Sessions.

To continue the trend, Nike’s Snake & Hammers comp is back next week in Montafon, Austria.

In case you didn’t catch it last year, it’s a banked slalom with slopestyle features dotted along the way. The idea is that the rider snakes his way down the course while dropping the best hammers. Better hammers = more time taken off the end result. The fastest rider wins! Pretty rad, no?

The aim is to get pro riders competing alongside local amateur champs in a whole new way. The winner gets a cool $8,000!

Jamie Nicholls is said to be heading over there (he won Best Hammer last year after stomping a solid backside 10 off a kicker) along with Kevin BackströmSpencer O´Brien and more.

It all kicks off on Friday 28th March for training, with qualis held on Saturday 29th and the finals on Sunday 30th.
