2024 Yeti Xtreme Verbier

A freeride theater that needs no introduction, the Grand Finale – as always – will be held on the iconic Bec des Rosses in Verbier. Dangerous snow conditions forced the event to be canceled last season, but the FWT is ready to return to a place it has called home since 1996, and where the next four world champions will be crowned.

The riders will face off on the Tour’s most demanding venue, Verbier’s famed Bec Des Rosses. The riders have to face vertiginous steeps exceeding 50°, a vertical drop of around 550m, and a labyrinth of technical terrain, it is a fitting venue for the climax of the World Tour.
