Avoriaz to host FWT event in March

Nice work- our friends over at Morzine Source Magazine have just discovered that the Freeride World Tour is set to land in Avoriaz on 15th and 16th March 2014 for a 2* event, which surely means the great and good of freeride skiing and snowboarding will be in attendance. For those not in the know, the FWT is a global, annual tour where the most talented riders compete for individual event wins with the aim of becoming World Champion in their particular discipline. FWT events usually take place in the steepest, most extreme back country terrain so it’ll be interesting to see where the event takes place in Avoriaz.
