In partnership with the Freeride World Tour, our mission is to operate as the sanctioning and governing body for big mountain Freeride competition in North and South America. The IFSA aims to provide a continuous progression from the early development of junior athletes through adulthood. With input from its members, the IFSA sets sanctioning guidelines for event execution and judging to ensure consistent competitions and represents the needs, interests, and safety of Freeride competitors. The IFSA pursues every opportunity to enable athletes to compete, learn, train, have fun, and safely achieve their goals.
