Les Deux Alpes Freestyle Camp 2025: an unforgettable week of snow, music, and community

The Les Deux Alpes freestyle camp concluded with remarkable success, bringing together 80+ participants from across Europe for six days of intense action, creativity, and unforgettable experiences. This year’s edition elevated the camp to new heights with enhanced content production, diverse activities, and an atmosphere that perfectly captured the spirit of freestyle snowboarding and skateboarding.

Professional Media Team and Premium Content Production

This year’s camp featured a significant upgrade with the addition of a dedicated photographer and videographer to the team throughout the entire week. This professional media team proved instrumental in capturing every highlight moment, ensuring no trick, no smile, and no memorable interaction went undocumented. Daily recap videos and consistent photo updates showcased each participant on social media, creating a comprehensive visual diary of the week’s adventures.

The enhanced content strategy not only documented the camp experience but also provided participants with professional-quality memories of their time on the slopes and in the park. Having a dedicated media team meant riders could focus entirely on their progression while knowing their best moments were being captured by experienced professionals.

Competition Excellence and Creative Challenges

Two international competitions in skateboarding and snowboarding showcased the incredible talent gathered at Les Deux Alpes. The competitive spirit was perfectly complemented by top-tier snow conditions that provided the ideal backdrop for pushing limits and landing new tricks.

The innovative “Spot to Spot” contest, organised in collaboration with Sauce Event, brought a fresh format to the competition scene. Riders moved between different features in the snowpark, spending 30 minutes at each location, with prizes awarded for the best tricks. This high-energy format not only generated spectacular visual content but also encouraged creative approach variations across different obstacles.

Cultural Enrichment Beyond the Slopes

The camp’s cultural program proved equally impressive. Spanish graffiti legend El Xupet Negre led an inspiring workshop, introducing participants to the history of street art before collaborating on a stunning mural that now adorns the skatepark. This artistic element added a unique dimension to the traditional snow sports focus.

Music played a central role in the explosive outdoor concert by the rock band Resto Basket, creating a standout moment that united all participants around live music. The popular hip-hop and dancehall sessions returned by demand, offering riders an alternative form of expression and movement off the snow.

Educational Opportunities and International Solidarity

The freestyle judging clinic, led by two international judges, provided valuable insights into competitive evaluation criteria and scoring systems. This educational component helped participants understand the technical aspects of competition beyond just performing tricks.

A particularly meaningful aspect of the camp was hosting the Afghan national snowboard team, supported by the Snowboarders of Solidarity project led by Victor Daviet. Their inspiring story, recently featured in an Arte documentary, sparked important discussions about resilience, community, and the universal language of sport.

Looking Ahead: Les Deux Alpes 2026

The success of this year’s camp sets the stage for an equally exciting 2026 edition. Mark your calendars for May 10-17, 2026, when Les Deux Alpes will once again become the epicentre of European freestyle culture, bringing together riders, artists, and enthusiasts for another week of incredible experiences.

The combination of world-class facilities, diverse programming, and the unique mountain atmosphere of Les Deux Alpes continues to make this camp a must-attend event for freestyle enthusiasts across Europe.
