Demo Scheduled for Saturday
After a massive snowfall in Krasnaya Polyana over the last two days, the riders enjoyed their first powder day in preparation for the competition to come. However, the clear weather window for Saturday is predicted to be just a bit too short to complete the competition, thus a judged demo has been organized on the Alpika face (start at I1 on the photo) with a prize package including $1000 and a week on heli-skiing in Russia for one skier and one snowboarder up for grabs.
The Demo will begin at 10am local time and the awards ceremony at 3pm. It will be judged by the same panel of judges as the Freeride World Tour stage, but will not count towards the Nissan Freeride World Ranking.
The Nissan Russian Adventure by Swatch still has two reserve days possible for competition. The clear weather windows for both Sunday and Monday seem to be much better options with the possibility of a heli-ski access to a face with over 400 vertical meters for the run.
