Thredbo Triple Crown: Big Air
Monday 25 Aug, 2025
The final stop of the 2025 Thredbo Triple Crown, Big Air is where riders go all in for glory! Taking center stage on the Q5 Jump in the Monster Terrain Park, this is the ultimate showdown where athletes send it big or go home.
New this season, we’ve teamed up with Snow Australia to officially sanction the Slopestyle and Big Air events as FIS competitions and included in the prestigious Australian New Zealand Cup (ANC) Series.
Judges will be looking for the perfect mix of technicality, amplitude, and style, with competitors battling for the top spot—and for some, the chance to claim the Triple Crown title and valuable FIS points.
Entries are limited and close 23rd August at 9am, unless sold out prior.

Judging Criteria: Overall Run Impression which takes into account:
- Progression – are the tricks new, uncommon and/or creative
- Amplitude – how big the hits are
- Variety – a mix of tricks within the run, extra points for spinning both ways
- Execution – how well the tricks are performed and landed
- Difficulty – how technical the tricks performed are
Youth, Junior, and Open athletes will be judged on the FIS points scale, with results contributing to both Triple Crown and ANC podiums.
Format: Three runs, best run counts
Run order: Competitors will drop in bib order
Helmets are compulsory for all competitors
Competitors can only register for one entry. Entry into multiple categories or disciplines is not allowed.
No, all categories (except Grom) are judged on the same scale. For example, a rider in the Junior category can come first in Triple Crown, while also being eligible for an ANC result.
There will be two separate podiums at Slopestyle and Big Air presentations. Athletes can still compete and be awarded in their usual Triple Crown categories, and will still be eligible for the additional ANC podium & results for FIS athletes at the end of the day.
