World’s first: X-project 2021 sets new standards in winter sports - Engadin (SUI) - Best Of
The X-project is unique in the world and embodies a combination of different sports in a breathtaking snowy landscape in the Engadine mountains in Switzerland. Windsurfing in powder snow together with speed riding, snowboarding and snowkiting. The unique thing about the X-project is the combination of different sports in the snow. In the history of winter sports, these sports have never been combined in this way. The pictures and film recordings are sureal and still real. The X-project shows unprecedented images and opens up new dimensions in winter sports.
Levi Siver from Maui and Balz Müller from Biel in Switzerland and their snow windsurfers draw the "X" in pristine powder snow slopes in the Engadine mountains. The windsurfing legend Levi Siver is one of the world's best big wave windsurfers. In his home town of Maui, he surfs the world's biggest waves in Hookipa and Jaws. The Swiss courtship Müller is a pioneer in foil sport. He is the reigning windsurf foil world champion and won the Wing Foil World Cup in Tarifa earlier this year.
The athletes of the air in the X-project are Maxime Chabloz with the snowkite and Ueli Kestenholz with the speed rider. Maxime Chabloz is a multisport talent and junior world champion in freestyle kitesurfing and at the same time junior world champion in freeride skiing.

Ueli Kestenholz is also a multisport legend and is a multiple World Cup winner and Olympic participant in alpine snowboarding. He has also won the X-Games twice. After his active time as a snowboarder, Ueli Kestenholz has developed into a speed riding pioneer and is one of the world's best speed riders.

His greatest successes are a Vice World Champion title on the Freeride World Tour and the victories at the legendary Engadinsnow Freeride Contest.
