HOVERAir is teaming up with the Freeride World Tour (FWT) 2026 to bring fans closer to the action than ever before, capturing breathtaking aerial footage of the world’s top freeriders as they tackle some of the most challenging off-piste terrain in Spain and beyond. Using the HOVERAir X1 PROMAX with its new Ski Mode, the camera offers hands-free, seamless filming that puts every twist, turn, and jump into stunning perspective.
This partnership represents a major step forward in snow sports technology. Thanks to HOVERAir’s advanced AI, athletes and fans can now capture every thrilling moment without a drone pilot or camera crew.

New Ski Mode Enhances Filming for Snow Sports
The Ski Mode for the HOVERAir X1 PROMAX ensures the camera adapts to the fast-paced movements typical of freeride skiing and snowboarding. With the ability to capture 8K resolution footage, it offers a cinematic experience for both athletes and fans.

Freeride World Tour Partnership and FWT 2026
The partnership between HOVERAir and the Freeride World Tour will provide a new level of dynamic storytelling in the world of extreme snow sports. The FWT 2026 begins in January 2026 with the BAQUEIRA BERET PRO in Spain, where HOVERAir’s cameras will follow freeriders as they navigate steep lines and deep snow. This collaboration will allow fans to see the competition from new angles, making it more immersive and exciting.
Nicolas Hale-Woods, CEO of the Freeride World Tour, expressed excitement about the partnership: “The Freeride World Tour has always embraced innovation that enhances the fan and rider experience. HOVERAir cameras help our FWT athletes capture new angles effortlessly and hands-free, bringing a new level of dynamic storytelling to the mountains.”
