Top 10 Tricks of The 2023 Freeride World Tour. Video

Mountainwatch | Video

Another season with variable and sometimes tough snow conditions for the 2023 Freeride World Tour but once again  the athletes threw down some pretty amazing tricks.

The events are always held in steep, gnarly terrain with a lot of exposure and while there was still a lot of hardpacked snow this year, it was good to see soft snow for the events in Kicking Horse and Fieberbruun.

Not surprisingly those two venues saw some of the biggest tricks on the tour, but there are also some progressive moves in this video, including a ridiculous screamin’ semen 360 from Xander Guldman.

However, the top spot goes to young Austrian Max Hitzig for one of the biggest, heaviest back flips you’ll ever see, a move that contributed to the rookie being named 2023 Rider of the Year. Check it out and you’ll understand why.
