After criss-crossing the planet, from the USA to Russia via Japan and France, the world’s best freeriders are qualified for an eagerly anticipated final. These professional riders (men and women in both ski and snowboard categories) demonstrate the depth and breadth of their talent on the legendary Bec de Rosses which rises to an altitude of 3,222 metres.
