SAAS-FEE RIDE 11
FREESKI VIDEO COMPETITION WINNERS ANNOUNCED!
The Saas-Fee Ride – Freeski Video Competition was set up to ultimately give the athletes the chance to show their skiing talent and express their own personal style of riding in the amazing snow conditions of the Allalin Glacier in Saas-Fee this summer. Over a period of one month, teams set out to create a short film of between 1-3 minutes to be uploaded to YouTube.

Many thanks to the resort of Saas-Fee for backing the Saas-Fee Ride Freeski Video Competition and huge thanks to the guys in the Snowpark for their enthusiasm and support. You can see the effort and energy that goes into making the park look as good as it does in Saas-Fee by watching Kobi Wursch's video edit (click here), the Snow Park shaper and a big energy behind the event. Thanks Kobi from all of us at Ride Freesport.
We look forward to seeing you all again at the Saas-Fee Ride next year.
