This season's Freeride World Tour champions were crowned in Verbier this weekend in an exciting end to the season.
As the best freeriders in the world gather in Revelstoke this weekend for the first stop on the all-new Swatch Freeride World Tour by The North Face, we were fortunate to be able to have a sit down with a free skiing legend, holder of the world record for the highest cliff jump and super nice guy - Fred Syversen.
The Verbier Xtreme started way back in 1996 as a stand alone event and now it has become a career defining world wide tour of 6 stops and 50 qualifiers.
The Grand Concours Hippique is held every August in Verbier. Since 1997 this regional and national competition has drawn riders from all over Switzerland and in some cases the world, to the Val des Bagnes for a week of show jumping.
Billy Morgan is one of the Britian's best chances of a Freestyle snowboarding medal at the Sochi Olympics.
James reports from the Verbier Ride 08, which proved to be an awesome event. This year the competition was a qualifier for the 'Orage European Open for Swatch', and with a gathering of International male and female athletes at the La Chaux Snowpark, this upped the stakes, and encouraged a lively and exciting competition. The level was extremely high, and so were the tricks!

With the whole of Verbier shut down in May (well most of it) its time to recharge the batteries and look forward to the summer events.
Magical March is here. Enjoy long, warm days in the sunshine.

Verbier is synonymous around the world for its unbelievable freeride skiing, as well as the huge 4 Vallees ski area. However, it also has a well-earned reputation for being a mecca for party-goers and the hub of some unbelievable apres venues.
