The primary cease of the 2026 Freeride World Tour occurred yesterday, January fifteenth, on the Baqueira Beret Professional in Spain, bringing the world’s prime freeride skiers and snowboarders collectively to compete for gold. There have been lots of stellar runs all through the day, starting from quick to technical and easy to trick heavy. However no run stood above New Zealand skier Ben Richard‘s which fittingly earned him a primary place.
To start with, Ben’s run was quick and easy, cooking via the steep sections like they’re nothing. His background in ski racing shined via, however his abilities within the air is what gave him the win. He threw an enormous Lincoln Loop, during which you flip sideways, and adopted it up with a easy 360, all with out showing to interrupt a sweat.
Ben’s run was prime of the rankings, however it wasn’t the one strong one. The whole replay is value a watch, however for the sake of time, Toby Rafford of the US took 2nd place. and Weitien Ho of Germany took third. You’ll be able to watch the whole replay under.
