Known as the world’s biggest dry-slope ski competition, this event turns Copenhagen into a freestyle playground, where top-tier skiers throw down on a custom-built slopestyle course—made entirely of plastic. With a massive crowd, summer sun, and a course built for big tricks, this year’s event promises to be the best one yet.

The Format

Five national teams, each made up of two skiers, go head-to-head in a fast-paced, team-based format. Every duo rides the course together, pushing boundaries with creativity, technical tricks, and crowd-pleasing stunts. Expect big sends, weird moments,and jaw-dropping runs that will leave both the judges and crowd buzzing.

Who’s Competing?

Defending champion Jesper Tjäder of Team Sweden was set to return but, due to injury, won’t be competing this year. However, his teammate Emil Granbom is bringing in Joel Magnusson as an alternate to defend the title. They’ll face fierce competition from squads representing Denmark, Norway, Finland, and a new addition this year: Team France.

More Than a Ski Contest

“Scandinavian Team Battle is more than just skiing on plastic—it’s a celebration of the culture, the city, and the local community,” says Jakob Ebskamp, event organizer and skier for Team Denmark. “I couldn’t be more stoked to welcome this level of talent to my home city. This year is going to be next level.”

Beyond the competition, the event is a one-day festival packed with bars, food stands, pop-up shops, and plenty of fun activities for everyone. When the skiing wraps up, the vibe continues with a live concert and a huge rooftop afterparty, keeping the adrenaline and energy high all night long.
