The Winter Olympics and the World Cup weren't enough. Now it's the IDF Euro Tour rolling into Russia for the first time ever, after a World Qualifier in Romania, followed by World Cups in the Czech Republic and Italy.
The event takes place at the Sanki Sliding Center, which hosted the 2014 Olympic Games. The track is on the road next to the Olympic Bobsled track - a similar setup to the legendary Whistler Longboard Fest.
The race happens during the Sanki Extreme Gravity Festival. If you're itching to skate or luge the bobsled track, single timed runs are available for an additional fee.
As the last race on the Euro Tour, the results at Sanki will help determine the overall 2018 European Continental Championships.
