The first and only tour stop in the German-speaking Alps has a special competition in store. In Fieberbrunn, the athletes compete against each other in the "best of two" mode. This means that every athlete has to, or is allowed to, plunge twice into the sometimes very steep and exposed slope. The Wildseeloder demands technically demanding, controlled skiing from the athletes, but is also a playground for creativity.

The Freeride World Tour 2022/23 starts its final stops in the Alps next weekend. The next stop at the infamous Wildseeloder in Fieberbrunn promises two new events and could become the unofficial finale.

A never-before-seen table at this stage of the tour adds extra spice to the event. For the first time in the history of the tour, two local heroes are leading the standings in the men's ski category. One question can already be answered in Fieberbrunn:
Can Valentin Rainer and Max Hitzig maintain their lead or even take a decisive step towards becoming Freeride World Champion?

This question, extended to the other categories, will probably also decide how the wildcard holders will fit into the tour. In addition to well-known tour winners such as Arianna Tricomi (FWT Champion 2018, 2019 and 2020 in the women's ski category) and Manuela Mandl (FWT Champion 2018 in the women's snowboard category), US freestyle snowboarder Ryan Wachendorfer also received a wildcard. All three are aiming to shake up the tour and bring even more quality to this tour.

ContestHappening 4 2023 | Crunchtime in Canada
Sebastian Müller • 02/21/2023On Friday, the FWT made up for the stop planned as the start of the tour at the infamous Ozone Face in Kicking Horse, Canada. The highest art of freeriding was on offer: Snowboarder Liam Rivera won as a rookie for Mexico, on skis Max Hitzig and Valentin Rainer confirmed their huge potential, and in the women's event rookie Megane Betend won on skis and Michaela Davis-Meehan on snowboard. The riders have been cut and are now heading to the finals in Fieberbrunn and Verbier. -
ContestHappening 3 2023 | Andorra
Tobias Huber • 02/12/2023The first two stops of the FWT have already been completed and although the snow conditions were difficult, the action was impressive. In Andorra, the race was held on the Pic Des Les Planes, in the same face as the 2022 stop. This terrain offers many options for line choice, starting with a steep and technical section and then offering countless small to medium-sized obstacles, mostly characterized by flat landings. -
ContestHappening 2 2023 | Muy Loco in Baqueira Beret
Sebastian Müller • 01/31/2023It was a party! The FWT took place in the Spanish Pyrenees for the second time in a row and it already seems to feel very much at home here. Under blue skies and in partly difficult, partly fantastic snow conditions, it was especially the performances of the local heroes that had hundreds of spectators cheering. It's clear: control wins points but Air&Style wins events, and young rookies win against old hands. A great start to the season!
