This is the full RECAP of the FWT24 Yeti Verbier Xtreme
This fifth, and final, event of the season was the cherry on top of an amazing, record breaking cycle of the Freeride World Tour. This comp had drama. It had suspense. It had runs that once again pushed forward progression of the sport and it had riders who wouldn't know if they'd be champions until the last rider crossed the finish.

Je Paq literally launched onto the scene when the clip of his triple front flip off the backside of Whistler Mountain went super viral. One trick doesn't make the skier though as he has been consistently showing us that his skiing ability isn't relegated to a single impressive moment.
Je Paq is a true "ski bum", living in his car skiing and every single day. He tells us a few of his tips for keeping his gear dry, where to charge his phone to how to spend each night relaxing in a sauna. You'll even learn what to if you ever hit a black bear with a Honda Fit!

Maxime Chabloz is a RedBull athlete for two different sports. He impressively, competes on two different World Tours, simultaneously. One being The Freeride World Tour, which he won in 2022, and the other he kite boards on the GKA Kite World Tour.
Max explains how he's able to juggle both, sometimes flying from one event in the mountains to another on the beach and back again. The Swiss born Chabloz is as unique as his story which is laid out in the recent film on his life, Petit Suisse, which follows him around the globe with an un-intrusive, fly on the wall perspective.
