Video series Four Below Zero will follow the fortunes of three top athletes in Red Bull Crashed Ice as they carve out a name for themselves in the fastest sport on skates, ice cross downhill.
Episode 4 focuses on the track: Unlike hockey, where the dimensions of the ice surface vary little from rink to rink, the characteristics of an ice cross downhill track are all unique. The engineering and thought that goes into these amazing tracks parallels the dedication and training that the athletes put towards competing on them and this episode highlights the differences from stop to stop and how the athletes attack each differently.
With the start of the season in Saint Paul only hours away - it's the last chance for the ice cross downhill athletes to discuss strategy and their plan to peak on race night.
