The name "Ragnarok" stems from an incident in Norse mythology, describing the last battle between the good and evil Gods, where only the heroes of the battlefield survive.

Red Bull Ragnarok imitates this myth in the respect that only a mere few snow-kite heroes will succeed. Endurance is paramount, and only the toughest riders will make it to the finish line. Freestylers will be favored by having the possibility to overcome some obstacles in order to shorten the track.

The Red Bull Ragnarok is an extreme snow kiting race in some of the most extreme conditions on the planet. The event was carried out on one race day during the period April 15th – 18th on the great plateau by Haugastøl, Norway. See for yourself.
