Event Previews & Reviews from Avoriaz

Avoriaz hosts some great events each winter, from an epic opening day, to a whole host of music festivals, there's plenty to look forward to this winter.

Meet one of Britian's best Freestyle medal chances at the Sochi Olympics; James Woods.

The Relentless Freeze Festival did exactly what it said on the tin and those not wearing their ski jackets could be found with teeth chattering, huddled around the vin chaud stand wrapping themselves in a fruity alcoholic blanket.

Episode four of One Team to Sochi is out and it's all about the young lad from Bradford; Jamie Nicholls.

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.

July brings with it all sorts of sporting events. This year we have the EURO 2016 hosted in France at the start of the month, the annual tennis tournamant at Wimbledon and Formula 1 action at Silverstone, Budapest and Hockenheim.

Meet Aimee Fuller Slopestyle Snowboarder, stunt double and one of the British Freestyle Snowboard Team.

There's lots going on in the week ahead!

So far we've seen not only some fantastic racing, stunning scenery and nail-biting sprints from the 2016 Tour de France, but we've witnessed several unusual crashes, the yellow jersey literally running up Mont Ventoux and more than one incident of an over-enthusiastic fan causing disruption.

Through the Savoie and the Haute Savoie, husky-dog mushers from the twelve or so different countries worldwide will be competing during a 2-week effort race over 1,000 km and over 25,000 m of cumulated positive difference in altitude.

The second Shreddie Feature Jam took place on Wednesday 6th February in snowy conditions. Riders took to three modules in the Burton Stash in Avoriaz in a jam session format. All the tricks were filmed by Stew Monk from Reelfun Media and the video is now live.

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

The weather thankfully held off long enough for yesterday's European whip off competition in Les Gets to take place and spectators were treated to huge air and lots of style as competitors battled it out for the prize money.
