Freeride World Tour 2010
”The Best Riders on the Best Mountains in the Ultimate Freeride Competition”
|
|
Grannies, Inc. are proud to announce that we'll be knitting the official beanies for the main sponsor of the Freeride World Tour 2010, Nissan. Our team of star grannies will be knitting furiously to produce an exclusive range of FWT beanies to keep Nissan's staff and team of freeride athletes warm on tour, including Big name European riders such as Xavier de le Rue and Aurélien Ducroz.
In 2010, the Freeride World Tour (FWT) will in its third year continue to align with iconic mountain resorts around the world, feature the world’s top riders and partner with two of the world’s most recognised brands.
We wish all the Nissan athletes the best of luck on tour and are looking forward to meeting them all at the final in Verbier in March.
