World Champs Idre Fjäll 2021 – Snowboard Cross preview
Snowboard 08 Feb 2021
It wasn’t an easy path to get here, but the world’s best snowboard cross athletes have made it to Sweden and are ready to get out of the start gate at the premier event of the 2020/21 season – the Idre Fjall 2021 FIS Snowboard Cross World Championships.
Due to the development of the covid-19 pandemic and the implemented measures by the Chinese health authorities and government, the originally scheduled FIS Freestyle, Freeski and Snowboard World Championships in Zhangjiakou (CHN) had to be cancelled earlier this season. However, the disappointment of that news was soon wiped away when the organisers in Idre stepped up to offer a solution for ski and snowboard cross competition at their iconic venue.
