Snowboard & Freeski: FWT takes place on 3 continents!
Freeride World Tour 2019
Hakuba (JPN) Jan 19-26, 2019
The
Freeride World Tour (FWT) expanded to Asia! The season kick-off of the
world’s most important freeride series for skiers and snowboarders will
be held at Hakuba (JPN). The second stage of the tour will revisit
champagne powder paradise Kicking Horse near Golden, British Columbia
(CAN). The series continues with the well-proven spectacular slopes of
Fieberbrunn (AUT), Vallnord-Arcalís (AND) and to the grand finale in
Verbier (SUI).
Hakuba is located in the
Japanese Alps and looks back on a long freeride history. The region
around Nagano, the host of the 1998 Winter Olympics, is famous for being
blessed with plenty of snow. An average 11 metres snow per year provide
for perfect freeride conditions.
