Burning Boots Banked Slalom is back this season for another set of mayhem turns and good times. The event will take place at Munich’s home resort Brauneck (just 70 km from the city) from the 7th to the 8th March 2020.

The event is special not only because of the location close to the city of Munich, but also because of the number of grommets you meet at the start.
