Description

A new season is just around the corner, and that means new excitement and action! The FWT 2025 is going one better. With a revised cut format that brings an additional event to the program, a bold redesign of the FWT Challenger Series and a completely new destination on the map, this season will be more exciting than ever. Let yourself be surprised and inspired by everything that awaits you.

New format for "The Cut"

In the 2025 season, the FIS Freeride World Tour is bringing a breath of fresh air with a new structure for "The Cut". Riders will now have five events to achieve their three best results and qualify for the grand final. Compared to the previous season, where only four stops counted towards qualification, this additional event gives riders more opportunities to showcase their skills. The sixth and final stop, the YETI Xtreme Verbier by Honda, promises a spectacular finale where only the best will be on the big stage. This change allows for more dramatic performances as riders can push themselves to their limits without the pressure of constant consistency.

In addition, access to the grand final in Verbier will be made easier: around 60% of riders who start in Baqueira Beret Pro will now qualify, compared to 50% in previous years. This adjustment is in response to feedback that the previous cut was too tough and eliminated talented riders too early. The penultimate stop, the Fieberbrunn Pro, will be crucial as the final qualifying event and will bring extra intensity and strategy into play to secure a place in Verbier.

The Site in Fieberbrunn

The stop in Fieberbrunn always provides the most exciting moments when the riders push themselves to their limits and fight for victory in one of the most iconic events of the tour. The Wildseeloderwand in Fieberbrunn is 2,119 metres high and has an altitude difference of 583 metres. With steep slopes of up to 48 degrees, this wall challenges freeriders with its narrow couloirs, cliff drops and technical lines. Riders have to adapt quickly to the different snow conditions and difficult terrain, making the Wildseeloder one of the most challenging stops on the Freeride World Tour.
