Pro and amateur freestyle event, Ride the Snake comes to Tignes for three days of festivities.

Fluid sequences, tricks, and fear-inducing runs will all be on display from the pro snowboarders trying to hit the perfect line - the one they have imagined - in the Palet sector.

After the pros have done their thing, the 'snow snake' will be opened to the public.

The amateur contests are for men, women and children, plus there will be two days of filming with 20 professional snowboarders aiming for that perfect shot. With the participation of renowned photographers, the objective will be to leave their mark.

In addition, Tignes is setting up an indoor skatepark at Tignespace of over 500m².
