The third stage of the SWATCH FREERIDE WORLD TOUR BY THE NORTH FACE 2013 (FWT) took place yesterday in the French ski resort of Chamonix.
Mont Blanc created a dramatic and amazing background to the competition at La Flégère ski area on the Aiguille Pourrie face. Riders and spectators were blessed perfect cloudless sky and little wind.
This stage marks the halfway point of the 2013 Freeride World Tour season and the pressure was on for riders to perform their best in pursuit of the first ever true world champion title.
