Win tickets to London FSO4 Freeze festival (UK only)

The UK’s biggest ever winter sports and music festival, Freesports on 4 FREEZE Sponsored by LG kicks off on Thursday October 23 with Battersea Power Station transformed into an international standard snowboarding and freeski venue. 

For the first time, London hosts a snow-based World Cup event featuring the biggest names from the world of snowboarding as well as a talent-packed International Freeski Event. The event, produced by Sports Vision, will be transmitted on Channel 4 at a date to be confirmed.

Standing at over 30m in height from the top of the structure, with a drop of 17m from the end of the ramp to the landing area, the real snow big air jump will form the central hub of the competition and will be the biggest ever created in the UK.
 
The snowboard competition, entitled LG London Big Air Event, forms part of the LG FIS World Cup for snowboarders and the riders taking part can score crucial ratings points in their quest to become World Champions, whilst also improving their chances to qualify for the Vancouver Winter Olympics in 2010.

Olympic silver medalist Danny Kass is just one of a host of legendary names taking part in the event.

The festival will also see the Big Air qualifying event, featuring the Worlds as well as the UK’s finest talent competing for precious FIS points to compete in the main event, the LG London Big Air.

Elsewhere the sporting arena will showcase a UK-only affair in the Battle of Britain (BOB), where the UK’s best in ski and snowboard will fight for the BOB title. The last   sporting event will be the final leg of the UK-wide LG Freeze Air Bag Tour- an area dedicated to finding the most creative skiers and snowboarders in the UK who will rely upon a 14m x 8m air bag to catch them.

As the sun sets on the snow jump, the music festival will come to life with an amazing array of acts lined up to play throughout the evenings in the 10,000 capacity arena. Confirmed to appear are indie anthem giants The Enemy, hip-hop legends Cypress Hill, Cardiff rockers The Automatic, New Wave Hollywood exports Iglu & Hartly as well as The Cuban Brothers and The Anomalies.
