The Three Words To A Snowboarders Heart: Transfer Banked Slalom

Posted on 16 Jun, 2026 in On the Slopes

To an Aussie snowboarder, the Transfer Banked Slalom is akin to the Superbowl… and we are pretty stoked to announce it’s returning for its 12th year in Thredbo on Saturday 5 September!

Bringing another year of tight turns, fast lines, banter and sideline shenanigans that have made this event a staple of snowboard culture. This year, the legendary race returns with a fresh Spring twist, new categories and huge after party, promising an unforgettable day on and off the mountain.

Adding another layer of excitement to this year’s event is the Stone Age theme. Anticipation is already building around what the park crew will dream up, with riders and spectators eager to see the course come to life through a collection of eye-catching ice features, creative obstacles, and themed course elements.

If previous years are anything to go by, expect plenty of imagination, a few surprises, and a course that is as entertaining to look at as it is to ride.

Enter A New Category: The Stone Age

New for this year is the addition of the Stone Age 50+ category giving seasoned riders their own chance to throw down and prove that style, speed, and stoke only get better with age.

Pirate Life After Party ft Hockey Dad and Goons Of Doom

To top off a huge day of competing on the mountain, celebrations continue with presentations and a huge Après Club after party thanks to our friends at Pirate Life featuring Hockey Dad and Goons of Doom.

With registrations sure to fill up, now’s the time to lock yourself in for the best event on the Aussie snowboarding calendar
