Next stop of FWT in Kirkwood, USA

The next stop of FWT the 25th of February 2011

Insert: 02.03.2011
The Freeride World Tour teamed up with the North American Freeskiing Championships in Kirkwood for the 3rd FWT stage 2011 (men and women skiers), with the opportunity for more athletes to compete against the world’s top riders. Fresh snow and a playful course meant two full days of aggressive skiing. Scores from both days were accumulated to determine the final ranking.

With an incredibly talented group of skiers converging on Kirkwood for this event it was the North Americans who dominated on home ground. The big winner was Kirkwood's hometown hero Josh Daiek (USA), followed by Kevin O’Meara (USA) from neighboring Squaw Valley and Guerlain Chicherit (FRA), who showed convincingly that he has still got what it takes to claim a spot on the podium despite taking a break from competition.

SKI MEN


1 - Josh Daiek  USA  78.70
2 - Kevin O'Meara USA  78.03
3 - Guerlain Chicherit FRA 76.33
4 - Jeremy Prevost FRA 75.53
5 - Drew Tabke USA 74.80

With a top women's field the battle promised to be exciting. Janina Kuzma (NZL) won the event in 2010 but this year, despite an impressive run, she was unable to repeat and placed second. Angel Collinson (USA) managed to take first place with a smooth run that included several clean airs. The podium was completed by Rebecca Selig (USA).
