what does it mean to be part of the FWT:

Enjoying good times with old mates riding beautiful mountains

motto:

There is no way to happiness, happiness is the way

Freeriding is much more than a sport or lifestyle to me. It is a way to live life, free from the pressure of modern society.
It is a state of mind… The search for the unknown in nature and inside of myself… A creative and artistic way to express myself.
