Snow pumptrack
A feature built for flow and control, as fun to ride as it is to watch. Rider challenges and sessions open to the public.

Ride · up high
The high-altitude playground
At the top of the Pontillas gondola, at 2,250 m and facing the Écrins, the festival turns the ski area into a playground for board and ski culture. Shows, open sessions and lessons in a spring session spirit: a celebration of riding together rather than a competition.

Your turn
You don't just come to watch.
Alongside the shows, the snow pumptrack and the waterslide are open to all levels, subject to places and time slots. On the waterslide, the goal is less to make it across than to go for it.
Lessons and gear tests are also on offer all weekend at the mountain village, from seasoned riders to curious holidaymakers.
- Sign up on site, at the top of the Pontillas
- Bring: your gear, a helmet, ID and ski insurance.
