Yesterday was Day 1 of the FWT Qualifier at Moonlight Basin, Montana. Judging from this clip it looks like these skiers put on one hell of a show! Even if the snow is a little sketchy, the Headwaters Venue looks rad and given a chance to send it to steep landings in a comp like this you can always count on some impressive hucks. Olglivie came up a little short on a large air but the stomp on rock was damn impressive, even if it looked like it surprised him as much as the judges.
For a “qualifying event” the bar was pretty high. The top 5 men and top 3 women from this event will get a green light into the North American Freeskiing Championships coming up at Kirkwood, CA April 4th-9th.

This place was going off yesterday! Big lines great venue….I took one of the hardest falls I have had in a long time yesterday! The finals are going to be insane today!
I don’t think Ogilvie meant to do that – got lucky – but hey, pulled it out like a champ. Props!
anyone else notice the difference between mens and womens lines?
anyway, everyone was shredding super hard, nice job everyone
