FWT CEO Nicolas Hale-Woods - Season End Interview
Wednesday, 30 April, 2025
We're joined by Freeride World Tour CEO Nicolas Hale-Woods to discuss the big stories of the season, starting with the much-celebrated return of the FWT to Alaska. We also get his take on the loss of the Kicking Horse stop and how that's not the end of the partnership. Nicolas gives us some clarity into the differing Region 1 and 2 Challenger formats, offering a behind-the-scenes look at how the tour is developing its pipeline of future talent. To round out the conversation, Nico lays out the format for the upcoming, and inaugural, World Championships and how riders are qualified. 0:00 Welcome Nicolas 00:12 Surefoot 3:20 - FWT Returns to Alaska 6:00 - Kicking Horse 12:08 - 2 Different Challenger Formats 25:50 - World Championships Watch This Episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/Khl-3nVXWPU ---- * The Freeride Guide is Supported By* Surefoot Custom Ski Boots - Ski the Surefoot Difference ---- WE HAVE MERCH!!
