It's time to talk about all the athletes who punched their tickets to the FWT for 2026. Mark and Derek are joined by IFSA Challenger Series Coordinator, Brennan Metzler and Snowboard Athlete Warren Doyle who will be returning to the WFT after a successful Challenger campaign.

We break down the final rankings from the Region 1 and Region 2 Series, discuss what happened and what's next for this new crop of skiers and riders.

This the season finale of the FREERIDE GUIDE Podcast. We want to make sure you're with us when we return!  Please Find, Follow, SUBSCRIBE and listen on your favourite podcast app.
