Ever wondered what it's really like to compete on the Swatch Freeride World Tour? In this great video diary - 'Free riding the perfect line' -  American freeskier Oakley White talks us through what it is like to take part in such a huge international event.

February was dominated by the Alpine Skiing World Championships, held every second year, which kicked off in St Moritz on 6th February. Over 13 days, 589 athletes from 76 countries competed in eleven competitions in front of 165,000 spectators.

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.

Only a week after the eponymous Freeride World Tour Final, on 7th April, the Verbier High Five by Carlsberg will come to town, a fantastic event aimed at getting more people involved with the competitive side of alpine skiing.

Fête de la Musique is the celebration that takes place every summer solstice on 21st June in cities, towns and villages across France.

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!
