VIDEO | The big freestyle show on the Seiser Alm

From January 15th to 23rd, 2020, the world's best aerial acrobats will show off their skills on skis and snowboards in the Seiser Alm Snow Park. The freeskiers start on Wednesday, including the local elite who absolutely want to get to the final.

We provide a foretaste of the upcoming spectacle in this video:

South Tyrol's long-time figurehead Silvia Bertagna, who narrowly missed the final last year, is still worried about her participation in the home World Cup. Last weekend she skipped the start in Font Romeu (FRA) at short notice due to a training injury in order to preserve the chance of being able to take part in the Alpe di Siusi.

This is what Silvia Bertagna says about her possible decision not to start:

Ralph Welponer will also get involved on Friday, he is fully motivated for the competition. “My goal is very clear: to get to the final first and then to finish in the top 5 on Saturday,” said the native of Val Gardena.

Here Ralph Welponer draws an interim conclusion on his season so far:

The organizers' goal is to further establish the FIS World Cup in the Seiser Alm Snow Park. “We want to place South Tyrol firmly on the map of top freestyle destinations and send impressive images of the Seiser Alm to the world,” explains OK boss Moritz Gruber. It is hoped that the success of the last few years will continue and that this year too many freestyle fans will gather along the slopes and in the finish area of the Laurin lift.

After the final on Saturday, there will be a special treat in the evening in the sports hall in Telfen/Castelrotto: At the “Seiser Alm Legends Music Festival”, top international acts will heat up all music enthusiasts at South Tyrol's largest indoor music festival.
