Freeride World Tour 2022 - Fieberbrunn (AUT) - Teaser

The Freeride World Tour is ready for its 4th stop. This will take place in Austria at Fieberbrunn, (AUT), in the weather window from Tuesday, March 15th to Sunday, March 20th. We are curious to see what the first stop of the final has to offer after the spectacular three qualifying stages! At the previous stop at Kicking Horse in Canada, the athletes had the last chance to qualify for the two staged FWT finals in Fieberbrunn (AUT) and Verbier (SUI). Due to the favorable location in the Alps, Fieberbrunn offers the freeriders excellent snow and faces, which allows breathtaking freeriding. The first Finals event will feature a revolutionary best-of-two-runs format. Each rider will have two runs, with only their top score counting towards the final results. Freeride is traditionally a one-run sport, and this format update is certain to push the riding to stratospheric, never-before-seen heights ahead of the all-important showdown at the Xtreme Verbier (SUI)! The evaluation criteria of the so-called runs of these extreme athletes include: Difficulty of Line, Control, Fluidity, Jumps & Technique.
