Event Previews & Reviews from Verbier

Meet Ben Kilner one of Britian's best halpipe snowboarders. 

The Relentless Freeze Festival did exactly what it said on the tin and those not wearing their ski jackets could be found with teeth chattering, huddled around the vin chaud stand wrapping themselves in a fruity alcoholic blanket.

Each year Verbier welcomes stars from the alpine skiing world to this unique event, which pits members of the public against some of the best skiers from the competition circuit.

How the team trains for the Olympics and how they came to be a team in the first place.

Verbier hosts some of the best and biggest free events throughout the season and they will not disappoint this winter. After last year's record breaking snow levels, Verbier is opening fully on December 1st with hopes of a similar forecast.

Meet Aimee Fuller Slopestyle Snowboarder, stunt double and one of the British Freestyle Snowboard Team.

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 ski lifts are preparing to open and the Christmas holidays are on the horizon.

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.

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

Magical March is here. Enjoy long, warm days in the sunshine.
