STE-TV – Red Bull ReDirect 2016 Recap

Red Bull ReDirect is an urban freeski competition boasting the most innovative and challenging re-directional features in the sport today. On Friday, February 12th professional and amateur athletes alike were invited to face off in the first major ski event of its kind held in Quebec City’s downtown core.

Leveraging the city’s iconic urban environment, existing landmarks and urban infrastructures was lit and repurposed as the basis for the course in lieu of traditional scaffolding elements. This innovative approach provided competitors a truly unique and genuine riding terrain.

A jam format was used to replicate a more authentic urban experience and allowed for more innovation and excitement. Ten international skiers met 6 local skiers and 4 Stairs Master wildcards in a battle for the Red Bull ReDirect trophy.
