  1. Was a Potential Controversy Averted in Austria!?

    Was a Potential Controversy Averted in Austria!?

    If it weren't for bad luck the FWT wouldn't have any luck at all this season. The cancelled FWT Georgia Pro event was quickly restaged in Kühtai, Austria. Once again though, the competition was cancelled due to incontestable snow conditions and the athletes are leaving without putting down a run... well, most of them are. After the only two riders of the day, Ben Richards and Joey Leonardo, crossed the finish line with really disappointing runs, the potential controversy begins there. The broadcast audio picked up a message from an operations microphone that instructed the two riders to go back up in order to take their runs again when the snow gets better. That's where things get interesting! 00:40 - Welcome Welcome Welcome 5:15 - Georgia restaged in Kühtai Austria 8:47 - "Schoffi" Competition Face 10:44 - Same Comp Cancelled Twice?! 14:37 - Competition Start & Controversy 50:33 Backslap Emails Watch This Episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/JraOqpZpjAQ The Freeride Guide is Supported By:    Surefoot Custom Ski Boots  HEAD -Tyrolia KORE Collection Send us an email to the BACKSLAP INBOX - Tell us what your hot take is and we might read it on the show. backslap@freerideguide.com Join our Freeride Guide Podcast FUN BET League: https://peakperformance.pronosticgames.fr/tribe/fac0332d-6096-469c-8859-08dd35506ec2 -Go to link above  -Click Leagues -Find the The Freeride Guide League -Join in and play along!  If you like the show, please SUBSCRIBE and Listen to every new episode! -------- About the Hosts:  Mark Warner is the Host of the Low Pressure Podcast: The Podcast for Skiers.  Derek Foose is the FWT Broadcast Announcer and Head Coach at Whistler Freeride Club and both are huge Freeride Fans.

    EVENT RECAP - FIS FWT26 World Championships

    This is the RECAP of the first ever Allianz Andorra 2026 Ordino Arcalis FIS Freeride World Championships by Mammut. In this special FWT event, the athletes weren't just riding with their country's flag on their shoulders, they were directly representing their home country. The roster was a little bigger and a little different from the season circuit and we were treated to excellent conditions, some great runs and a very controversial finish to the Ski Women's event. 6:30 - Event Conditions / Delayed Start 19:05 - BACKSLAP Emails 30:10 - Snowboard Men 40:30 - Snowboard Women  51:02 - Ski Men 1:09:03 - Ski Women 1:31:49 - IFSA Update Watch This Episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/YkttQWiXcF4 The Freeride Guide is Supported By:    Surefoot Custom Ski Boots  HEAD -Tyrolia KORE Collection Send us an email to the BACKSLAP INBOX - Tell us what your hot take is and we might read it on the show. backslap@freerideguide.com Join our Freeride Guide Podcast FUN BET League: https://peakperformance.pronosticgames.fr/tribe/fac0332d-6096-469c-8859-08dd35506ec2 -Go to link above  -Click Leagues -Find the The Freeride Guide League -Join in and play along!  If you like the show, please SUBSCRIBE and Listen to every new episode! -------- About the Hosts:  Mark Warner is the Host of the Low Pressure Podcast: The Podcast for Skiers.  Derek Foose is the FWT Broadcast Announcer and Head Coach at Whistler Freeride Club and both are huge Freeride Fans.

    EVENT RECAP - Val Thorens Pro| FWT26 Stop #2

    This is the full RECAP of the FWT26 Val Thorens Pro. The second event of the season proved challenging for the Ski Men. A specific feature proved, many times over, that 360's were actually superior to backflips. An Argentinian topped the podium for the first time ever in Ski Women and local athletes took top spots in the Snowboard Men and Women's categories. To add a little spice, there was a bit of controversy amongst all the spectacular action too.
