The Schattenbergschanze is an imposing structure rising nearly 500 feet from the valley floor, with a backdrop of the Allgäu Alps towering behind. The ski jumps of Oberstdorf, a German village of 10,000 in western Bavaria, are among the most notable in the world site of the annual Four Hills Tournament each December and the gathering spot for athletes from over two dozen nations for the FIS Nordic Ski World Championships.
Park City’s Paige Jones slid onto the bar at the top of the towering HS137 meter ski jump. Just 18, she has already accumulated a passport full of stamps and a worldly education in sport as an up-and-coming ski jumper.

It was quite the journey from Austria’s Reiteralm to central Georgia, which is the next stop on the Audi FIS Ski Cross World Cup calendar, but the whole circuit made it and is happy to explore this new ski cross venue.
Here, in Bakuriani, everything is set for one next individual competition, but also for the world premiere of the ski cross mixed-team event in a resort that is completely new on the World Cup calendar.
Bakuriani, in central Georgia, where the FIS Freestyle Ski, Snowboard and Freeski World Championships 2023 are slated to take place, has been working very hard to prepare the World Cup competitions and implement all the necessary tasks for the upcoming test-events.
