The Freeride World Tour in Revelstoke has been on Weather Hold since Monday.  After almost 3 feet of snow, a high pressure weather window is moving in and the competition will be held Friday.  Meanwhile, competitors and friends have been skiing sick pow.  Check out these words from McKenna Peterson and photos from Axel Peterson.

FWT competitors began to pour into Revelstoke over the past week and right on schedule, so did the snow. With over 50 cm 78 cm of dumpage in the past few days, the best riders in the world have been enjoying some of the best snow North America has to offer.

The forecast is predicting another 15-20 cm over the next couple days and rumor has it the competition won’t go off until Thursday or Friday.

Revelstoke is definitely the place to be right now. With all that super deep fluffy stuff, I guess we just have to ski it.
