Revelstoke hosting freeride world tour event

Revelstoke Mountain Resort (RMR) is proud to announce its role as the host and organizer of the upcoming 2025 Revelstoke IFSA Qualifier 4* event. The competition will be staged in the North Bowl on January 22, starting at 10 a.m.

Revelstoke’s North Bowl venue is iconic. It features cliffs, chutes, and seemingly endless opportunities for airtime over rugged exposures that are fit only for the best freeriders. Nearly every current World Tour rider has had to pass through this playing field.

The IFSA Qualifier events are a vital stepping stone in the journey of upcoming athletes, giving them the opportunity to accumulate points across 60 global events. These points are pivotal in determining an athlete’s Global Seeding List ranking and eligibility for the renowned Freeride World Tour.

“We invite spectators to join us at the top of the Ripper Chair on January 22, where they can witness the athletes’ impressive skills as they navigate the terrain in North Bowl,” encouraged RMR Events Manager Gautier Hebert. “Spectators can expect an unforgettable display of talent.”
With $10,000 in prize money and dreams of qualifying for the World Tour, these athletes are motivated to deliver their best performances.

“We are excited to host this highly anticipated IFSA event at Revelstoke Mountain Resort, offering up a challenging venue for these talented athletes to showcase their skills,” Hebert added.” Our partnership with IFSA aligns with our dedication to fostering the growth of freeride discipline and providing a platform for aspiring athletes to advance their careers.”

The event will culminate in an award ceremony at 5 p.m. at The Paul Mair Plaza, immediately following the competition. Attendees can celebrate the athletes’ achievements and immerse themselves in the camaraderie that defines the freeride community.
