TOGETHER WE MAKE THE MOUNTAIN SAFER
Freeride World Tour
IFSA
Official Education Partner of the Freeride World Tour and IFSA
Alongside the leaders of world freeriding, we train riders, staff, fans and young talents to move freeride culture towards more safety, responsibility and sustainability.
A shared belief: safety is what lets you fully enjoy the mountains. That’s why, since 2026, all athletes of the Freeride World Tour and the Junior World Championships are trained and certified by WEMountain.
Because freedom in the mountains always starts with good decisions.

FWT, IFSA & WEMountain Are Teaming Up
The Freeride World Tour, IFSA and WEMountain have chosen to work together with one clear goal: reducing accidents and saving lives in the mountains.
By putting education at the heart of freeriding, we want to make the sport safer without ever losing its essence.
Our mission is to support today’s and tomorrow’s riders in developing a more responsible freeride, combining training, awareness and innovation to protect what brings us all together: the freedom the mountains give us.
