Setting off from Chamonix in France the top 8 snowboarders and the top 8 skiers in the Freeride World Tour rankings as well as those with wildcard invitations will travel through Italy, Switzerland, Germany and Austria with the hope of impressing the judges and winning some of the US$ 80,000 prize purse.

Confirmed snowboarders include Stefan Gimpl (AT), Jeremy Jones (USA) and last years winner Xavier de le Rue (FRA) and in the Freeski Henrick Windstedt (SWE), Sverre Liliequist (SWE) and last years winner Kaj Zachrisson will be competing.

The nature of the event makes it practically impossible for fans to be present but on the flip side the action from the mountains will be out of this world. Freecaster.tv makes it possible for all to keep up with the day to day developments so even though a massive area is covered, dedicated followers of snow and ski can tune in to Freecaster.tv and be amazed.
