Take on Whakapapa's natural terrain and put your freeride skills to the test.
5TH — 6TH OCT
The Freeride Festival brings skiers and snowboarders together for two competitions, each offering a different way to take on the mountain. Race against the clock or show the judges what you've got in the freeride competition.
Entry is $35 for one event or $60 for both, payable upon bib collection on event day.
Enter one event or take on both!
ROGUE RUN
A timed race through off-piste, natural and bumpy terrain where speed is the name of the game. Each competitor gets two runs, with their fastest time counting towards the results.
Competition categories will be confirmed based on entries.
FREERIDE
Forget the clock, this one is all about how you ride. Competitors take on a freeride course with each run judged by three judges on overall freeride performance.
Each competitor will have up to two runs, subject to conditions and operational constraints, with their best run counting towards the results.
