Tignes is gearing up to host the third European Winter X Games this week, which takes place from March 14th - 16th.
Around 150 world-class athletes will be competing. There will be eight different competitions for men and women over three days with SuperPipe events in both skiing and snowboarding, a hair-raising Slopestyle course, plus lots of demos, live shows, and airbag and big air events. This year's Games also see the inclusion of Shaun White, Olympic gold medallist and X Games USA veteran - this year is the first time he'll be taking part in the European event.
