The riders list in this year’s TAC is historical. Among the stars that will be hitting up the course at the Oslo Vinter Park, you’ll find the seven of the best riders from this year’s X Games slopestyle finals and the stars of the podium from Air & Style Innsbruck: Mark McMorris, Werner Stock and Peetu Piiroinen.

Torstein Horgmo put down his historical triple cork at the X Games big jump finals, while Sage Kotsenburg was the first rider to ever to land a cab 1440 double cork in a contest, executed at Air & Style in Innsbruck. With these rebels on the start list, who knows what the young creators of the art form snowboarding will come up with during the event owned by snowboarding’s legendary trick inventor, Terje Håkonsen.

If you can make it Norway the event is free to attend and the environmental profile is stronger than ever.
