Words by BigLife Staff 

February 10-15, 2020 at Jackson Hole Mountain Resort

The highly anticipated Kings & Queens of Corbet’s has quickly grown, in its two-year history, to become an industry icon. This year’s event is sure to electrify the skiing and snowboard community once again with an incredible line up of athletes. The invitational event has filled up with 24 of the world’s top freeriders.

The Event

Held in a similar format to many surf competitions, Kings and Queens is held within a weather window where the contest day is chosen when the conditions are optimal for the event and athletes. Just announced, the 2020 competition will be Tuesday, February 11th. Viewing of the event will take place below Corbet’s Couloir, in Tensleep Bowl, and the competition is expected to start at 10am. JHMR wants to remind spectators; there is no beginner or intermediate terrain from the spectator venue down to the bottom of the mountain. A livestream of the event will be available on Jacksonhole.com and Red Bull TV.  

New for 2020, spectators can meet and mingle with the athletes at daily “Athlete Après” events. There will be a public judging party on Friday, February 14th. Sweet Protection is hosting the official Kings and Queens after-party Saturday, February 15th. All happening at the new Continuum Hotel in Teton Village.
