Hotham once again lived up to its reputation as the freeride capital of Australia, hosting the Freeride World Tour Qualifier 2-star event.
More than 80 athletes from Australia, New Zealand, North America, and Europe descended on the mountain to throw down in the infamous Peach Bowl zone in Heavenly Valley.
Challenging weather conditions meant the event was split over two days. Snowboarders threw down on Thursday with fresh snow giving them the confidence do go big. However, the weather rolled in and forced a pause on the action before the skiers could finish their runs.
We reset this morning for the skiers. They delivered an incredible display of talent, style and technical skill across the field. Between two days of flips, spins, cliff drops and massive stacks, the Qualifier was all-time!
