Men’s Snowboard athlete Tilden Wooley becomes the newest Team Palisades Tahoe alumni to qualify for the Freeride World Tour. He is one of 9 Region 2 Riders to Qualify for FWT25 following the 2024 Kirkwood IFSA Challenger this past Monday, April 1. Tilden started with Team Palisades Tahoe around the age of 10, and now this season he qualifies for FWT25 at just 21 years old.
This week’s event at Kirkwood was stop 3 of 3 for Region 2 on the FWT Challenger series; the series is split into two regions: (1) Europe-Oceania and (2) Americas. Tilden cemented his 1st place ranking for the series with a 2nd place finish at Kirkwood.
“Tilden was another athlete who delivered an ultra-consistent season, showing signs he has what it takes to be on the FWT. Tilden started with a fourth at Crested Butte – which ended up being his throwaway score – followed by two second-place finishes to propel him to the top of the overall rankings. ”
