Event History

Getting an invite to The SIX(6)STAR Oakley Arctic Challenge is pretty hard. Only the TTR Top 10 and a few wildcards can enter. On top of that, the winner and highest air from three qualifying events in Europe and US also gain entry to the TAC. The Final access point is The THREE(3)STAR Arctic Open – TAC’s own qualifying event in Norway on February 16th, 2008.

 

Together with the local resort Varingskollen, The Oakley Arctic Challenge is making some solid investments into the new event. A new arena is being created, more machinery is brought in and lots of new shapers and organizing personnel. There’s even some prize money: $10 000 USD.

 

The ultimate prize, however, is the access to The Arctic Challenge. The winner and the highest air go straight from Arctic Open to The Arctic Challenge, which starts 2 days after the qualifier. And as a bonus, Terje Haakonsen will be there, so there might be additional wild cards up for grabs.

 

The THREE(3)STAR Arctic Open is open to anyone who can snowboard, but you should be able to spin a BS 5 at 5 m to be considered a serious contender.

 

And there for sure are opportunities for a new Cinderella story: In 2006 Henning Marthinsen went straight from winning the qualifier to winning TAC.

 

Here we go again!
