The Wängl Tängl's Snow Team Showdown - 16-Man Knockdown with Losers Round!

All but unique in today's competitive contest circus is the Wängl Tängl's three man team head to head format. With no individual judging and all three members hurling or grinding their way down the course at any one time, it's easy to understand the event's motto, "It's on when it's on...!" Hard hitting, ball's and all glory up for grabs with a full frontal team attack has seen the Wängl taking a leaf out of the Surfing formats, creating a three day contest window searching for the perfect conditions to get the show on the road. In other words, it's on when the conditions are on! Teams are judged purely on their combined performance and overall fluidity while squeezing all possible combinations thinkable in the upgraded Vans Penken Park, finishing on the now famous Red Bull end section. With all this happening at once, the contests employs a team Head-to-Head, three run, best run counts, knockout format to give the judges the best chance to purview all the riding on hand in a manageable way. To avoid the brutality of a regular Head-to-Head knockout, an adaption from Surfing has been employed again, creating a 'Second ChÄnce' round, meaning a team has to loose twice to be knocked out or win twice to make it to the Quarter Finals. Strategy and tactics employed by the Team Captains including Herby Thaler, Wolle Nyvlet, Tylor Chorlton, Hampus Mosesson, Alex Walch, Nelson Pratt, Chris Kröll, Stefano Munari, Tonton Holland and Levi Luggen may be the vital difference between relegation or Team title aspirations... Little doubt there is everything to play for with all guns blazing at the Wängl Tängl's Snow Team Showdown 2011!
