LONDON October 21, 2026
C15 Studio and the International Ski & Snowboard Federation (FIS) today announced the launch of the Ski & Snowboard World Cup channel, a dedicated 24/7 free ad-supported streaming TV (FAST) channel bringing the world’s best snow sports directly to fans across the United States and Canada.
Operated and distributed by C15 Studio, the dedicated 24/7 free ad-supported streaming TV (FAST) channel features more than 600 hours of premium live coverage of elite snow sports directly to fans across the United States and Canada.
The Ski & Snowboard World Cup channel will broadcast comprehensive coverage across all major FIS disciplines including Alpine, Snowboard, Freestyle, Freeski and Nordic, featuring the sport’s biggest names, including Mikaela Shiffrin, Lindsey Vonn, Marco Odermatt, Eileen Gu and Chloe Kim at the most iconic mountain venues in the world. In conjunction with US Ski & Snowboard, fans will also enjoy unprecedented access to prestigious domestic locations including Killington, Copper Mountain, Beaver Creek and Lake Placid.
Beyond live competitions, viewers can enjoy high-end athlete documentaries, full-run replays and highlights, expert analysis and behind the scenes access to the rivalries and personalities that shape the sport at the highest level.
Enthusiasm for elite snow sports across the US and Canada is at an all-time high, driven by an exceptional generation of athletes redefining the sport on the world stage. Our collaboration with FIS brings that thrill front and center, giving fans a front-row seat to the entire World Cup journey. It’s an exciting leap forward for winter sports broadcasting, celebrating the prestige of these world-class events with effortless, around-the-clock availability
Joe Nilsson CEO & Co-founder, C15 Studio
The launch of Ski & Snowboard World Cup reflects our commitment to developing our audience in North America, which is at the same time one of our core markets and also one with immense untapped potential for growth. Looking ahead, we are observing how the global FAST ecosystem is maturing, and our next logical step would be to broaden this direct-to-fan distribution to other markets.
Stefan Brütsch FIS Chief Commercial Officer
The launch further strengthens C15 Studio’s growing portfolio to eight premium sports channels, building on its strategy of combining live competition and curated, year-round content to help leading sports properties reach new audiences and unlock new commercial opportunities.
The Ski & Snowboard World Cup channel will begin rolling out across leading streaming services in the United States and Canada from November, including Prime Video, Fire TV, Google TV, Live TV on PS5, Plex, Sony Pictures Core, The Roku Channel and Xumo Play. Further details, including availability on additional services, will be announced in due course.
