FUTURE Plans
Film Project
Preparation for Olympic Qualifiers
Earlier this year, The Freeride World Tour announced that it has partnered with the International Ski and Snowboard Federation (FIS) moving forward. This partnership, along with some other efforts from the FWT and the freeride community, have laid the groundwork for freeride to be an official sport in the Olympics.
While there is no certainty yet, Ross is in a prime position to represent the United States if freeride is included in 2026 Winter Olympics.
