The smallest hotel in Flims Laax
Snow League by Shaun White
When the world’s best skiers and snowboarders compete in a halfpipe, it’s not just about the competition, it’s about pushing the boundaries at the highest level.
That’s exactly what Shaun White’s Snow League delivers.
The new competition series brings together the international freestyle elite and places a clear focus on the halfpipe. Names you’d normally only see at the X Games or the Olympics are all lining up at the start here.
This weekend, the Snow League made its first stop in Laax.
A fitting location: The halfpipe at Crap Sogn Gion is among the best in the world and has been the stage for the greatest moments in freestyle sports for years.
For guests at Peaks Place, this meant experiencing world-class action live, just a few minutes away.

Finals in Laax
Laax became the venue for the decisive showdown.
This is where the final of the first Snow League season took place, a series that has been setting new standards in halfpipe competition since its founding by Shaun White in 2024.
With total prize money of $2.2 million, the Snow League ranks among the most significant events in freestyle sports. The level of competition in Laax was correspondingly high.
Over the course of three days, the world’s elite in snowboarding and freeskiing gathered to decide the season’s outcome.
In the end, it was right here that the first champions in Snow League history were crowned.
Moments that last
World records, finals, and top-level runs
The finals in Laax delivered exactly the kind of moments you’d hope for from an event of this magnitude.
Kaishu Hirano provided the highlight. With his run, he set a new world record for the highest halfpipe air, an incredible 7.72 meters. A height that stands out even among the world’s elite.
But even in the finals, it quickly became clear just how high the overall level is.
In snowboarding, Yuto Totsuka in the men’s division and Sena Tomita in the women’s division secured the first Snow League titles. In freeskiing, Luke Harrold and Eileen Gu came out on top.
They all impressed with runs that perfectly combined precision, style, and risk—exactly what it takes to succeed at this level.
