Have you ever watched a Red Bull Crashed Ice event and felt that urge to give it a try? The speed, the battles, the obstacles; do they stir up an excitement within you that just has to be explored? Well, this year the new Junior World Championship is giving budding ice cross downhill athletes the chance to compete at the four major Red Bull Crashed Ice events. Watch the clip below and read on further if you think you have what it takes.
If you think you can cut it, here's what we need from you:
- Passion - You've got to be serious and committed if you want to hurl yourself down one of our demanding ice tracks. If you have the fire in your belly and the belief that you can compete, as well as a burning passion for this sport, you've got the basic ingredients.
- Youth - To compete at the Junior World Championship in 2016/17 you need to be aged between 16-20.
- Skill - Being young and passionate is the easy bit. But before we even think about sending you to the start gates we will need to see some proof that you can actually cut it on ice. To do this, you'll need to create a short video that clearly displays your skills on ice. Download and fill out this application form and send both files to [email protected]
- Don't delay - We have plenty of places still available, but the new season is fast-approaching and we need your details asap.
So, if this sounds like the perfect opportunity you've been waiting for, then now is the time to get involved. Just think, next time you hear the famous "5-second warning" it could be you up there ready to burst out of the gates in front of thousands of cheering fans.
