There's a lot going on this week with some great events, live music and apres ski parties.

Katie Summerhayes from Sheffield is back on snow for the first time since her ACL injury. She talks about the freeski scene to come out of Sheffield Ski Village and how Woodsy helped to push her when she started out on the European circuit.

As the best freeriders in the world gather in Revelstoke this weekend for the first stop on the all-new Swatch Freeride World Tour by The North Face, we were fortunate to be able to have a sit down with a free skiing legend, holder of the world record for the highest cliff jump and super nice guy - Fred Syversen.

The Pass'Portes du Soleil is an annual event that marks the beginning of the summer cycling season in the Portes du Soleil.

Since it first began in Whistler in 2004 Crankworx has grown to be one of the biggest events in the mountain bike calendar, with extra dates added in Rotorua, New Zealand and France.

More than half the season done, it's magical March and a chilled vibe settles on the resort.

February was dominated by the Alpine Skiing World Championships, held every second year, which kicked off in St Moritz on 6th February. Over 13 days, 589 athletes from 76 countries competed in eleven competitions in front of 165,000 spectators.

We've technically only got one month to go until the lifts close and interseason descends on the Portes du Soleil. However before it does, we have an amazing month of fun and events ahead.
