Arctic Challenge goes slopestyle
Translate this page:

The Oakley Arctic Challenge returns on January 2 at the Tryvann Vinterpark near Oslo, Norway.

Terje Haakonsen's flagship 6-star TTR event has had many incarnations over the last decade and this year it will feature an epic slopestyle course.

The event, which has been running since 1999, has had may ups-and-downs but most notably, it was the scene for Terje's record-breaking 9.8 metre air out of a giant quarterpipe in 2007.

Here's some fantastically-rendered computer images of what's in store for the likes of Sebastian Toutants, Mikkel Bang and Pat Moore.

You can check out all the details on the TAC website.
