Nothing Quite Like It: from 4th-9th April 2022. The storied action-sports event series returns to the Swiss Alps this spring for another high-flying ski and snowboard progression session.



Thirty events. Fourteen years. Four countries. One mission: creating an unparalleled platform to express human talent, camaraderie and progression in action sports, from skiing and snowboarding to mountain biking and beyond. From the 4th-9th April 2022, The Nines will return to Crans-Montana in the beautiful Swiss canton of Valais. This historic 30th edition will continue the event’s long-standing tradition of pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in freestyle sports and feature designs. The sprawling sports infrastructure of Crans-Montana’s Alaïa—including a wave pool, skateparks and snowparks—and of course, the massive Nines snow features, means that the action will keep pumping both on and off the slopes. A hand-selected squad of top international skiers and snowboarders will convene at this veritable freestyle paradise for six days of film and progression sessions in The Nines’ unique non-competitive format, producing some of the most eye-catching content of the year. Some of the top names in freeskiing and snowboarding have already confirmed their attendance. Among them are luminaries like Zeb Powell (USA, SNB), Zoi Sadowski-Synnott (NZL, SNB) Marcus Kleveland (NOR, SNB), Matej Svancer (AUT, SNB), Anna Gasser (AUT, SNB), Jesper Tjäder (SWE, Ski), Sebbe De Buck (BEL, SNB), Taylor Brooke Lundquist (USA, Ski) and Tess Ledeux (FRA, Ski). And the list continues to grow…
