SAAS-FEE RIDE 07 - An Amazing Event Against All The Odds
The 3rd event in the 2007 Ride series took place on Saturday 21st July in the glacial resort of Saas-Fee, Switzerland. The European Summer Freeskiing championships, the Saas-Fee Ride 07 offered spectators the chance to see some of Europe’s finest Big Air action on the Allalin glacier at the top of Saas-Fee.
Riders and organisers both agreed that the 5th edition of the Saas-Fee Ride was the hardest but best one to date, especially considering two days of hard core rain leading up to the event and one of the most unstable summers in years. The event pulled through the odds with the help of a few important factors; Europe’s best summer skiing glacier, the new design of the Snowpark and the extra efforts of the Saas-Fee Bergbahnen’s Pisters and Snowpark Shapers.
