THE ECO FREERIDE CONTEST
It's a three day freeride competition in the swiss alps between Andermatt and Disentis.
The riders have to hike up and they can choose their own lines and mountains. The terrain contains  faces for all skills.
The experience of nature, consideration on nature and the correct behavior on offpiste-­terrain are an important image component for this event.

THE EVENT
Even there are good buddies it‘s a freeride competition. It‘s categorised in men and women but not in different disciplines!
The judging will be realized by video analysis from each rider. There is a riders voting at the mountain hut during the event and a public voting on our new website WWM after the event.
The competition will be carried out on the best sunny day. There is an alternative programm for bad weather.

The event itself will be small and has little audience by skitouring people (the mountain hut is about two hours away from civilisation) – It's all just about riding!

THE SUMMER PARTY
In summer there will be the pricegiving party of the public voting and also a presentation of the kick the vik documentary film. A three day polysportive event at the swiss mountain resort Flims.




 

2008 wurde der Freeride Event KICK THE VIK vom Verein Skireal5 ins Leben gerufen. Der ganze Event ist möglichst teilnehmerfreundlich gestaltet und soll Freeskier, Snowboarder und Telemarker gleichermassen ansprechen. Während drei Tagen tauschen die Freerider ihre Erfahrungen aus, geniessen die Abfahrten, die Berge, das Zusammensein und das feine Essen auf der Hütte.

Wenn es die Verhältnisse zulassen, wird  ein einzigartiger Freeride Wettkampf durchgeführt.
Zuerst wählt der Rider einen Berg und seine Abfahrtslinie. Beim Fahren wird jeder gefilmt und fotografiert. Am Abend werden beim Ridersvoting die Fahrer durch die anderen Fahrer bewertet. Alle Abfahrten können nach dem Event auf world wide mountain angeschaut werden und stehen für den int. online freeride contest zur Verfügung.
