EVENT DETAILS & INFO
Location: Aillon-le-Vieux
Our HQ is situated in the middle of nowhere in the French mountains
of the Savoie region, a stone's throw from the freeride tracks
we'll be riding.
Surrounded by nature, lakes and beautifully paved roads and hosted by the awesome Woodwings crew we'll be spending a week doing what we love most - skating, eating and chilling.
Miniramp, two closed freeride tracks and a platform for freestyling by day and stargazing by night - Aillon-le-Vieux has it all.
What more could you ask for?
As the name suggests, this event is structured around a freeride schedule. If you want more, we'll have our own miniramp as well as a small obstacle course.
Skate 'til your heart's content/your legs beg you to stop!
The possibilities are endless, rider numbers however are limited to 40 spaces to ensure we can offer everybody our undivided attention.
Sign up today to secure your spot!
