Jyväskylä / Laajis

Red Bull Crashed Ice will move to Jyväskylä – Laajis ski resort for the third major stop of the season and will feature the longest track of the history of the sport. At 630 meters long, the course will integrate the natural elements of the environment to its epic proportions. The natural ice track in Jyväskylä will not only be the longest track of the four major races in the 2015-16 Ice Cross Downhill World Championship. The race in Finland will also be the only major stop on a natural ice track. The riders will have to adjust to the small – but important – differences of racing on the natural ice after the first two Red Bull Crashed Ice races were held on artificial ice tracks built in Quebec City and Munich. In general, natural ice tracks tend to be bumpier and invariably more challenging with a greater variation of the ice conditions from the start high up on the mountains to finish lines down in the valleys than the more perfect and consistent ice conditions throughout created by cooling systems that are buried beneath the artificial ice tracks.
