Morgins

At the ninth edition of the popular Morgins Freesession on February 15, 2014, the Swiss riders also received a ranking for the Swiss Freeride Championships for the first time. The snow quality was very reminiscent of off-piste riding in spring due to the air masses being far too warm for the time of year, which some riders clearly knew how to demonstrate... But take a look for yourself! Rider reporter Niko Göz was once again at the start for PowderGuide...

From February 16 to 17, 2013, another edition of the now almost legendary T-Bar Free Sessions took place, once again in the charming Swiss resort of Morgins. This is a traditional resort in a high valley on the Swiss side of the (believe it or not) 12-valley(!) Portes du Soleil ski area - the "gateway to the sun" south of Lake Geneva with 650 kilometers of slopes, various parcours parks, halfpipes and countless deep snow areas... On top of that, there are mountain panoramas of a special kind on Dents du Midi, Dents Blanches and Mont Blanc. What more could you want?

On February 18, the FWQ community in Switzerland came together for the first time in 2012 to hold the Morgins Free Sessions 2012 after the event in Engadin was canceled. In the hunt for important ranking points and the highly coveted prize money, mainly freeriders from France and Switzerland took to the start line. Many of them came from the surrounding area. Alexandra Panhofer and participant Julian Zenzmaier were on site for PowderGuide.
