One last stop for Snowboard Cross

24/3/2017

After five World Cups and the world championships events completed, the best snowboard cross riders are in Veysonnaz, Switzerland for the final 2016/17 World Cup and Team SBX event with Alex ‘Chumpy’ Pullin coming into the race currently ranked fourth overall in the world on 2,790 points.

Joining Pullin in Veysonnaz is Cam Bolton and NSWIS skiers Adam Lambert, Matt Thomas and Adam Dickson.
Jarryd Hughes decided not to contest the final race and three-time Ladies World Cup winner Belle Brockhoff is recovering from injury.

Two-time world champion and recent World Championship bronze medal winner Alex Pullin is well within reach of the overall podium and has had a strong season, having been consistently in the top five during this season, collecting a gold (Feldberg) and bronze (Montafon) along the way.

Despite the course in Veysonnaz being described as becoming more ‘mellow’ over the years, Australian coach Ben Wordsworth says everyone is “looking forward to the final World Cup to finish the season strongly.”

“The course here has always suited riders like Alex Pullin as it has always been fast and technical,” he said.  

Men’s qualifying gets underway on Friday evening 24 March at 8.45pm with the finals on Saturday night from 11.30pm.
