Freeride World Tour Challenger on the Kitzsteinhorn

They are the decisive events when it comes to rising to next year's freeride major league: the Challengers.

The X OVER RIDE enjoys cult status among freeriders – it's been taking place on the Kitzsteinhorn since 2004. Last year, the legendary event has been significantly upgraded: In 2024, on its 20th anniversary, the X OVER RIDE is held as Freeride World Tour Challenger for the first time.

Hence, world's best freeriders are going to fight for Freeride World Tour 2027 qualification points on the Lakarschneid face. Those who want to join live, get an unobstructed view from the public viewing area on the Langwied. The event will also be live-streamed.
