00:00Toby gives all the credit for his skiing to his sister Addie Rafford who was on

00:05the Freeride World Tour for the last few years. Toby Rafford 4-ran last year in

00:11Verbier and absolutely got the whole crowd fired up and now on course here

00:16for his first Freeride World Tour run. Toby just oozes with style. The way that he

00:22plays with venues is completely different. A different playground for him.

00:27Well a huge flat three there and the landing letter-perfect. Toby Rafford

00:33keeping it moving, skipping over the rocks, styling it out with a big shifty

00:37and popping and playing. It just looks like a playground for Toby Rafford. He's

00:42such a smooth skier but as you said Hadley just oozing with style. Now

00:46roasting across here trying to get as much speed as he can to get up high. Toby

00:52Rafford making very short work of that upper section with that huge flat spin

00:56that was so perfect. We saw him do a double flat spin in one of the Challenger

01:01stops last year. This guy has one of the deepest bags of tricks in the freestyle

01:05game on the Freeride World Tour and we're already seeing that come into play.

01:09And you know as you said every time he's in the air whatever trick he does is

01:14gonna look really good and that's quite the technique. So a big air into the

01:20straight line cool wire now picking up a bunch of speed for this wind lip. Toby

01:24Rafford holding on to the speed with a double flat he connects with it. Oh my god

01:50himself apart. Well Hadley run us through this replay from Toby. You can

02:00gonna see a stylish run. See those air and style bar pretty much maxed out.

02:05Getting the grab on that perfect landing in the fall line in the gnar. Skipping

02:12over these rocks and still able to pop the shifty. We saw even the smoothest

02:16men on skis Ben Richards struggled there and Toby Rafford flying out over

02:21the roller and then coming down setting this up this air a huge air into the

02:26cool wire. A setup move for what was to come next. Oh and we saw the first one on

02:32the top and then a double at the bottom. This guy can really do anything in the

02:37air. Holding watch the holding the grab through the first rotation all the way

02:42through the second rotation. Connecting at exactly the right time. Hard left
