After three events in Europe, the FWT is coming back across the pond to North America. The Haines stop will be hosting only those who qualified for the event: “the top seven women skiers, top five women snowboarders, top 16 men skiers and top eight men snowboarders.”
It’s also worth noting that big mountain destroyer and Alaskan local has been given a Wildcard to the event.
Hopefully the weather and snow conditions cooperate. It hasn’t been easy for the tour this year, but they’ve managed to make the best of it and keep the ball rolling into the final two events of the year.
This article here gives a good sense of the standings going into Saturday…
