Jackson Hole Mountain Resort (JHMR) is pleased to announce the athlete lineup for the most anticipated event of the season, Kings & Queens of Corbet’s. Next month, JHMR will host twenty-four of the world’s top freeride skiers and snowboarders, pitting runs head-to-head in the famed Corbet’s Couloir with competitors vying for the title of King or Queen of Corbet’s.
The highly anticipated Kings & Queens of Corbet’s has quickly grown, in its two-year history, to become an industry icon. This year’s event is sure to electrify the skiing and snowboard community once again with an incredible line up of athletes. The invitational event has filled up with many of the world’s top freeriders. “We’re excited for Kings and Queens 2020 and the athlete line up this year is world class,” stated JHMR Events and Partnership Manager, Jess McMillan. She went on to note, “We have competing two-time Olympian Jessika Jenson, X Games medalist Hana Beaman, and film stars Tim Durtschi, Karl Fostvedt and Sam Kuch to name a few along with an incredibly talented field from around the globe filling out the roster.”
Held in a similar format to many surf competitions, Kings & Queens will be held within a weather window where the contest day will be chosen when the conditions are optimal for the event and athletes. This year’s competition will be February 10-15, 2020. JHMR will update the status of the event each afternoon during the competition window at https://www.jacksonhole.com/kings-queens-corbets.html and on JHMR’s social channels the day prior to the event. Viewing of the event will take place below Corbet’s Couloir, in Tensleep Bowl, and the competition is expected to start at 10am. JHMR wants to remind spectators; there is no beginner or intermediate terrain from the spectator venue down to the bottom of the mountain. A livestream of the event will be available on Jacksonhole.com and Red Bull TV.
Kings and Queens of Corbet’s is supported by GoPro, Smartwool, Gortex, Yeti, Sweet Protection and Red Bull, bringing together some of the world’s best action sports networks, products and athletes to Jackson Hole Mountain Resort. Sweet Protection is hosting the official Kings and Queens after-party Saturday, February 15.
