Event organizers of the SWATCH FREERIDE WORLD TOUR BY THE NORTH FACE have announced the details of the 2013-14 season schedule. Following the tremendous success of the inaugural globally unified Freeride World Tour , athletes and fans alike are eagerly awaiting next season’s competition to unfold live via webcast of all six stops on freerideworldtour.com. Over 637,000 viewers tuned in during the 2013 season to watch the world’s top freeride skiers and snowboarders compete on the most impressive terrain on the planet.

The 2013-14 Freeride World Tour will take place at the same six stops as the previous season. Each stop has a five to eight day weather window designed to provide optimal competition conditions. The tour will start at Revelstoke Mountain Resort, CAN (Dec. 18, 2013) and then cross the Atlantic to Courmayeur, ITA (Jan. 18, 2014) and Chamonix-Mont-Blanc, FRA (Jan. 25, 2014). From there, the tour will continue in Europe at Fieberbrunn PillerseeTal, AUT (Feb. 1, 2014) before returning to North America at Kirkwood Mountain Resort (March 1, 2014). After the Kirkwood stop an athlete cut will be made determining which riders will advance to the Swatch Xtreme Verbier by The North Face® (March 22, 2014) and compete to be the new Freeride world champions. Additionally, the tour is thrilled to have the continued support of its title sponsor, Swatch, and presenting partner, The North Face.

In addition to top tier Freeride World Tour competitions, nearly 50 Freeride World Qualifier (FWQ) events ranging from one to five stars will take place around the world providing opportunities for talent to develop and emerge. The first FWQs will take place in the Southern Hemisphere in New Zealand and Chile. Riders participating in FWQ events throughout the season will earn points, which could potentially advance them to the 2015 FWT.

Athlete Impressions

Men’s 2013 Overall Ski Champion Drew Tabke of Seattle, USA - "I'm super excited for the 2014 edition of the Freeride World Tour. I've found the desire to continue improving my riding keeps me stoked and that feeling positive leads to good results. In particular, I'm looking forward to seeing the riders qualified from the FWQ bring new elements in riding styles to the FWT. Athletes like Rafael Webhofer (AUT), Ian Borgeson (USA) and Francesca Pavillard-Cain (USA) are going to blow people's minds."

Men’s 2013 Overall Snowboard Champion Ralph Backstrom of Squaw Valley, USA: "I plan to spend my summer getting back into shape biking, surfing and weight training for next winter’s Freeride World Tour. I hope to be able to defend my victory by having more consistent wins in the coming season."

Women's 2013 Overall Snowboard Champion Elodie Mouthon of La Clusaz, FRA: "The season has just ended and I’m really looking forward to riding again and participating to the 2014 FWT. This summer, I will go mountaineering and take part in trail running competitions in order to better understand the mountains and to be in good shape for next season. Obviously, my objective will be to keep my title but I would also like to get closer to men’s best snowboarding level."
