Cody Bramwell Wins the YETI Xtreme Verbier as Victor de Le Rue Secures Historic Fourth
Snowboard Men’s FWT Title

Victor de Le Rue (FRA) made history today, securing his fourth FWT title after a strategic and stylish
run at the YETI Xtreme Verbier by Honda. The French snowboarder balanced technical tricks with
calculated line choice, landing a frontside 360 and a stylish front flip to score 89.00—placing third on
the day, but still earning enough points to clinch the overall title. With this victory, he ties Marion
Haerty’s all-time record and surpasses his brother Xavier de Le Rue’s three-title mark.
But the day belonged to Cody Bramwell (GBR), who delivered a near-flawless run to claim victory at
the YETI Xtreme Verbier by Honda. Attacking the steep upper section of the Bec des Rosses, he
launched a huge backflip, stomping the landing despite the challenging snow conditions. A 360 and a
second backflip near the finish sealed the deal, earning him a massive 92.67 score—his second win of
the season and enough to propel him to second place in the overall rankings.
Liam Rivera (SUI) thrilled the home crowd with a high-speed descent, opening with a massive
Hollywood Cliff drop and following up with a perfectly executed backflip, earning 90.00 and second
place in Verbier. His performance was enough to clinch third place overall, capping off an incredible
late-season comeback.

Bramwell and Rivera’s remarkable comebacks saw them surge up the rankings late in the season,
securing second and third overall, while de Le Rue’s consistency throughout the year ultimately
proved decisive in his record-setting fourth title. It was a fitting conclusion to an intense and
unpredictable season, with all three riders delivering standout performances when it mattered most.

“Winning the Xtreme Verbier is a dream come true. It’s such a legendary competition
that it still doesn’t feel real. I had almost counted myself out, thinking about next year,
but somehow I finished second overall. I’m still pinching myself.”
– Cody Bramwell, 2025 YETI Xtreme Verbier by Honda Snowboard Men Winner

“I am incredibly happy to make history with this title. It was a goal from the start of the
season, but the competition was tough, and conditions were challenging. It all came
down to the final run, and I am grateful for how everything played out.”
– Victor de Le Rue, 2025 FWT Snowboard Men Champion

Noémie Equy Wins the YETI Xtreme Verbier as She Caps Off a Perfect Snowboard Women’s
Rookie Season with the FWT Title

Noémie Equy (FRA) dominated the Bec des Rosses, delivering a flawless, high-speed descent to
claim victory at the YETI Xtreme Verbier by Honda, securing her FWT title in spectacular fashion. She
charged down the steep upper face, linking fluid turns with a cleanly executed early air, before
committing to a massive double drop with unwavering confidence. Her powerful and precise riding
earned her a standout score of 89.67, sealing a historic rookie season in which she won four out of six
events.

Michaela Davis-Meehan (AUS) secured second place, blending strong technical riding with fluid turns,
an air with a grab, and a near-stomped 360 to score 83.00. Núria Castán Barón (ESP) rounded out the
podium in third (74.00) with a smart and controlled line, navigating complex terrain with confidence.
Equy had already clinched the FWT title in Fieberbrunn, but her victory in Verbier cemented her as
one of the most dominant rookies in freeride history. Davis-Meehan’s late-season surge, which included a win in Kicking Horse and three consecutive second-place finishes, earned her the overall
runner-up spot. Castán Barón (ESP) secured third place overall, proving her consistency with three
third-place finishes after narrowly making the FWT Finals.

“Winning the title and the Xtreme Verbier in my rookie season is more than I could have
ever expected. I am really happy with how everything turned out, and now I am looking
forward to celebrating and working on getting even better for next winter.”
