The story

FIS Freeride World Championships Andorra in Ordino Arcalis

Ordino Arcalis hosts the first-ever FIS Freeride World Championships across a multi-day window in early February, with athletes across four disciplines, Ski and Snowboard, Men and Women, each getting a single judged run to decide the sport's first official World Champions, rather than points accumulated across a season-long tour.

Dozens of athletes across four disciplines get exactly one run each to become the first-ever official FIS Freeride World Champions, a single-elimination-by-design format that makes the inaugural FIS Freeride World Championships fundamentally different from the sport's season-long World Tour.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

Crowning the sport's first official FIS Freeride World Champions in a single-run, winner-decided-outright format makes this fundamentally different from the points-based Freeride World Tour, and holding the event at Ordino Arcalis, a small Pyrenean resort rather than one of freeride's traditional big-mountain venues, marks Andorra's arrival at the centre of the sport's newly formalised championship structure

02

The mystery stays covered

Selecting the actual competition day from within a weather window, rather than fixing a date in advance, also reflects how conditions-dependent the judging of line choice and control genuinely is
