Red Bull District Ride livestream
Twenty-one of the world's best riders dropped in at a track where they had to pull out all the stops. With three completely different districts, Red Bull District Ride went in search of the most complete slopestyle rider in the world. The course was therefore a combination of all the different styles within the sport and to reach the podium, it was important to perform well on all districts.
The course was divided into three different districts. Each rider first rode in qualification all three districts which add up to one round. After the first round, the best six men and the best three women advanced to the second round: the finals.
- Dual District: each rider chose their own line.
- Park District: creativity prevailed and innovation was rewarded.
- Big Air District: some of the biggest jumps in slopestyle history.
Each rider took on all three districts and each district was judged separately. Added together, the individual district scores formed a total that counted towards the standings. In addition to the creativity and height of the tricks, the judges also assessed who managed to land the most technical and innovative tricks. The highest and the lowest jury scores were discarded.
