FWT needs diffrent locations

I don't want to see same places year after year, a good place for new lines would be corbets (like a week after kings and queens), and natural selection. also wtf is the judging
 
It costs a lot to host events like that. More US stops would be cool but resorts don't like the extra liability and pay out the ass in insurance.
 
Not sure if the FIS acquisition will be better or worse for new/diverse locations on the tour. Will be interesting to see what direction they take it.
 
Agree with new stops, it brings the visual inspection way more into play, and takes away some advantage of vets over rookies....BUT

Corbets a week after kings and queens? no way. that venue is kinda boring anyway, the main attraction is the cornice huck to shitty landing, then its over. We would just get the same comp again with worse conditions, and probably worse tricks. and at that point Jackson would be keeping Corbets closed for like a a month, Im sure that would go over well.

If they could do it on like "Pucker Face" of "Cody Peak" or something like that, thats a different story.

I would say bring back Alaska, and add another canada stop. Or maybe bring back Japan, and find another dope venue in Austria.

Don't think Corbetts could ever work for FWT, the size of the face is an order of magnitude smaller than what is normally on the tour.

Jr. Qualifiers material at best
 
Next FWT stop needs to be at a local park in Wisconsin with a really sick DFD next to a church or something
 
High Baldy all the way down at Snowbird like it was for the Subaru Freeride series or whatever it was. It's due for one but with this much snow, who knows if anything is big right now. Silver Fox is just rock-skipping at this point, nothing major.

Plus why do they keep having adult qualis on the same venue that Juniors ski?

high baldy with the FWT crew would go absolutely dummy hard. I know Apoll wants it to happen but Dave Fields at Snowbird doesn't want it to happen apparently.
