With world title races and critical points in every category hanging in the balance, the world’s best freeriders revelled under the pressure of Crunch Time and gave it their all in Andorra after patiently waiting for conditions to allow for today’s competition to go down. Blake Hamm (USA-1st Place) brought his strong freestyle game sticking a switch 180 followed by a big 360 at the top of the venue, a floaty and stylish 360 in the middle and a big bottom air to take his first career FWT win.

Michael Mawn (USA) took the win for the second consecutive year with a strong technical line. He threaded the needle at the top of the course, airing into a tight couloir, which threw him out at high speed into the face. He then sent multiple critical airs while maintaining complete control of the board under his feet.

Challenging conditions didn't stop Tiphanie Perrotin from putting down a strong run from top to bottom to win the the first of the two-staged FWT-Finals competition in Fieberbrunn, Austria!

FWT21 runner-up, Katie Anderson (CAN), found a playful line, linking multiple airs and grabs with incredible board control, before cruising through the lower powder field with style.
