    New Zealand's high-energy, mass-participation snow race, is back for a fourth year in Queenstown


    Up to 400 participants from amateurs to professionals are racing down Coronet Peak today, hoping to be crowned the ultimate speed champion of this year's Red Bull Homerun.

    The world-renowned event has taken over slopes from Sweden to Canada.

    Red Bull athlete Nico Porteous says the main goal is to have fun.
