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 Tetnuldi

With its breathtaking mountain scenery and challenging conditions, the 2025 event promises to be an even tougher competition, with riders putting their skills to the test in this high-altitude region. The competition will take place on the Kakhiani in Tetnuldi, which lies at 3,150 metres and has an altitude difference of 350 metres. Known for its steep slopes and natural obstacles, the terrain tests riders with tight chutes, technical cliffs and open sections. Kakhiani offers a variety of freeride opportunities that demand precision, creativity and daring from the world's best athletes.
