On Saturday 22nd October, the London Ski Show (www.metroskishow.co.uk) in Earl’s Court played host to the 8th edition of the London Ride. This is the UK episode of the Ride series of freestyle ski events, which also features the Verbier Ride (www.verbierride.com), Saas Fee Ride(www.saasfeeride.com) and the Urban Ride (www.theurbanride.com). It’s an afternoon in which the danger and excitement of high-risk snow-sports comes storming into the sophisticated streets of West London. Ski-fans of all origins, from City bankers to hardcore powder hounds, come to gape at a blur of metal and flesh, laid down by teenagers who you wouldn’t look twice at in the fields of Reading Festival.
You can check out and watch the awesome action with the highlights from the event by clicking below the TV screen. The event was once again filmed for international broadcast to help further exposure the incredible riding skills of today's freestyle skiing athletes.
Watch this space over the coming weeks for the release of the London Ride 11 24 Minute TV Programme. Look forwards to seeing you at the Verbier Ride in January 12.
