Vom 18. bis 24. Januar 2016 finden die LAAX OPEN statt. Ein Happening für alle. Ein Snowboard Event mit dem Feinsten vom Feinsten. Ein Contest mit Snowboard Ikonen, Heroes und Newcomern. Eine logische Konsequenz der LAAX roots. Weltklasse Rider wie Iouri Podladtchikov, Danny Davis, Stale Sandbech, Tyler Nicholson, Anna Gasser, Christy Prior und Enni Rukajärvi haben ihre Teilnahme bei dem mit 500.000 US$ Preisgeld dotierten Contest zugesagt und garantieren ein hochkarätiges sportliches Ereignis.
