ABOUT

A.K.A. VALLE

Valentin Rainer, from Tirol, Austria, continues to prove why he’s one of the most consistent and respected riders on the Freeride World Tour. The 2023 FWT Champion backed up his title with another strong season in 2025, finishing 4th overall and landing on the podium in Val Thorens with a brilliant 2nd place finish.

A former alpine racer turned freerider, Valentin’s precision, power, and creativity set him apart. Trained under SCOTT legend Stefan Hausl, he brings a perfect mix of experience and passion to every line he rides, always pushing for more while staying true to his roots.

Feeling to be a FWT champion

"Feels insane, really. When I say that I am the FWT Champion I still can’t believe my own words... but it makes me super happy and proud! It was my number one goal in freeride competition"
