Red Bull Crashed Ice is a winter extreme sports event organized by Red Bull . In 2001 the first event of this kind took place in Stockholm . The sport is also called Ice Cross Downhill or Crashed Ice Contest and contains elements of ice hockey and snowboard cross . A downhill run with ice skates is organized on an artificially created ice slope, mostly in an urban environment, which contains steep curves, high gradients and jumps. Most of the participants are ice hockey players and wear appropriate gear. There have been world championships since 2010.
history
The sporting comparison of ice skaters goes back to an idea of a former snowboarder and ice hockey player from Sweden. The mix consists of one third boardercross , one third ice hockey and one third inline downhill . The Red Bull company had its first ice course set up in the city of Stockholm and invited interested athletes to the premiere event in March 2001. 57 participants from 10 countries, including Sweden, Netherlands, Norway, Austria, Switzerland, Great Britain, France and even South Africa, had registered for the premiere, mostly active ice hockey players. After everyone involved in the first event saw it as a complete success, this new winter sport established itself as an annual competition under the constant sponsorship of Red Bull. Initially, the total win bonus was $ 5,000, which was shared among the top four. In 2007 there was a total of $ 10,000 to be won (1st place: $ 5,000, 2nd place = $ 3,000, 3rd place = $ 1,500, 4th place = $ 500).
Because the number of participants and the interest of the audience are constantly growing, a world championship (WM) has been organized annually since 2010.
German participants in the international competitions have only existed since 2009. In Germany, the previously little-known sporting event was advertised for a while as "Ice Cross Downhill". When the opportunity arises, calls for female and male participants to come forward have appeared.
Track, equipment and rules
The ice skaters start in a kind of ice halfpipe ( ice track), which is set up in larger cities as an open facility, in groups of three or four from a starter box next to each other. Then it's down to an ice rink up to 600 meters long in several curves with small bumps, podium and goal obstacles (made of red and blue pennants) or hairpin curves. In 2007 the runway in Québec was already 430 m long and had a height difference of 60 m.
The equipment includes ice hockey skates with safety runners, ice hockey clothing with padded parts including back protectors , joint protectors, gloves with protectors and recognized helmets (hockey helmets with face protection or downhill helmets with protective goggles). According to the regulations, normal body checks are allowed, while pushing and pushing leads to disqualification. In the course of development, the rules were revised several times, currently the work from 2013 applies.
The competition works according to the knockout system , ie the best from three or four runs compete against each other, etc. The winner has to sprint through the ice channel several times. Speeds of around 60–70 km / h have already been measured on crashed ice.
Competition mode
In regional qualifiers ( qualifier events ), the participants of the international events are determined, in this case a course set out on an ice hockey rink must be run through as quickly as possible.
In the international competitions (since 2010 world championship runs), the regionally qualified participants and the world elite compete for qualification runs together. These are pure time trials without direct opponents. The fastest 64 runners then fight in groups of four (heats) for a place in the final. The first two runners at the finish reach the next lap until the last four fight for victory in the final.
The winner of a run receives 1000 world championship points, the second 800 etc. The athlete with the most points at the end of the season is world champion. The calculations are based on the placements in the marked competitions; in the 2019/20 season it was the eight stations Judenburg (Austria), Pra-Loup (France), Mont du Lac (USA), Percé (Canada), Rautalampi (Finland) and Yokohama (Japan) and Le Massif de Charlevoix , Québec (Canada).
