The Freeride World Qualifier in Chamonix-Mont-Blanc, an amazing success

Where better than Chamonix, the Mecca for outdoor sports, to bring together those passionate about freeride?

Everything was in place for the amazing show: sunshine, low temperatures, cold snow, a spot loved by the locals, the "Hôtel du Brévent" - 400 vertical meters on a steep slope facing east - and 92 riders anxious to reveal their talent taking on the face!

A village set up at the bottom of the slope for the pleasure of the spectators (mostly French and foreign tourists) as well as fans of the discipline who came to admire the courage and creativity of the riders.
