Freeride World Tour Chamonix-Mont-Blanc Highlights
Arguably the worlds most renowned freeskiing destination, Chamonix-Mont-Blanc in France played host to the latest stop of the Freeride World Tour. The conditions in France looked incredible and the skiers took full advantage to showcase their athleticism to the world. While there was no live stream coverage of this event, the Freeride World Tour was able to release the top runs rather quickly so we could enjoy the action as well. The skiers and snowboarders have a quick turn around this week, with the next stop in the tour hitting Courmayeur-Mont-Blanc starting this Thursday.
