The Red Bull Crashed Ice is one of the most spectacular International sporting event. This event will be held for the sixth consecutive year in Quebec City from March 16 to 19 2011. This extreme skating competition mixing hockey, snowboarding and skiing will impress fans of strong sensations.

More than 80 competitors including men and women will slide down the artificial icy runway spread in the heart of Old Quebec to the delight of spectators. This infernal descent of 535 meters long has hairpin turns, steep slopes and insane jumps. It is enough to make this world unique championship one of the hardest on ice competition.

Attracting nearly a hundred thousand people each year, the event will end on March 19. This grand finale promises to be exciting.

If action is your thing, imagine a skating race along some of the city’s steepest streets with a breakneck descent that would make even the most hardened daredevils think twice. Welcome to the Red Bull Crashed Ice extreme skating competition in fabulous Old Québec!

Sharpen your blades, Red Bull Crashed Ice is back. A combination of downhill skiing, hockey and boardercross, Red Bull Crashed Ice will return to the historic district of Old Québec at the end of March 2010. Last year, over 90,000 screaming fans lined the cobblestone streets as they watched 80 participants soar down the icy course.

The one-of-a-kind 550-meter urban ice track (with a 56-meter vertical drop) will wind and dive its way through the city’s historic heart. But there won’t be any time for racers to stop and taste the maple taffy as they navigate the course’s massive vertical drops, razor-sharp turns, jumps and steps, all at speeds of up to 50 kilometers per hour.
