2015 saw a premiere on Kreischberg: the snowboarding and freestyle skiing world championships were held together for the first time.

The Kreischberg organising committee mastered this challenge brilliantly, and so the World Championships were a great worldwide advertisement for snowboarding and freestyle sports.

Here are some facts and figures:

800 athletes from 40 nations took part in the World Championships.
The World Championships entourage comprised a total of 2,500 people.
24 competitions were held over 11 days.
50.000 fans ensured a great atmosphere at all competitions and side events.
350 journalists from 19 nations reported from Kreischberg and Lachtal.
The TV broadcast in 25 countries and on YouTube attracted worldwide attention.
800 volunteers were responsible for the excellent organisation.

Many thanks to all associations, helpers, sponsors and cooperation partners!!
