Freeride World Tour Challenger: The final stage of the qualification process for the Freeride World Tour. The top qualified riders will compete against FWT riders who have not managed to qualify for the FWT Finals. By invitation only, the Freeride World Tour Challenger ranking will be used to select riders for the next FWT season.
It’s the showdown to join the elite!
Freeride World Tour Qualifier: The Freeride World Tour Qualifier is designed to nurture the talent and skills of young aspiring athletes. Riders accumulate points at 75 events held worldwide (including forty in Europe).
The goal is to earn the necessary points to reach the finals!
Freeride World Tour Junior: The FWT Junior was established in 2011 to provide a platform for young athletes (boys and girls) aged 14 to 18 to develop their skills and become future world champions. In 2018, an additional age category for riders aged 10 to 14 (U-14) was added. Beyond coaching to develop their snowboarding skills, these events teach young athletes how to pursue their passion for freeriding safely, with an emphasis on prevention, safety, and responsibility in mountain environments.
