The streets of Bad Gastein, Austria will once again play host to the Red Bull Playstreets—this year on February 23. The city center (situated on a down slope) has been transformed into a modified slopestyle course, with jump and rail features constructed along a winding, snow-laden path. The event ranks among the most unique skiing contests on the planet. Twenty-two athletes are scheduled to compete this weekend (see below).

Stay tuned for continued coverage on freeskier.com.
