freeride world tour Chamonix
the freeride world tour. Not exactly scott schmitt or glen plake definition of “ski libre” but more of a stunt show…really (really) strong athletes are throwing their bodies down a slope at mac2, no matter what the snow is and huck huge cliffs , trying to make it look good and fluid. Very hard and crazy!
Given the overly sponsored nature of the show, there were about 100 photographers sporting their newly high tech toys….so i didnt really try to take any pictures. i just snapped a few stolen shots.

Oakley and Ralph sharing a croissant !
An awkard picture of Drew Tabke. The man himself , the winner. He just flew down. tight and strong.

Drew Tabke. winner.
Doods Charlet, local hero. winner.
of the aiguille verte.
so this is what “freerider males” are summed up with: If you want freeriders males to come to your event, just throw average looking chicks inside a plastic bubble (a condom of sort?) , wearing trashy bikinis and have them dance on tacky techno…et voila! you will have a hord of testost-urinaited pigs drinking your tasteless beer and buying whatever shit you sell them! fail!…

swiss-zerland with cab and a case of the Saturday
so My new best friend Christian Cabanilla (a bad ass heli pilot/guide in alaska..) told me he had a friend to visit in the swiss land (who happen to be Ueli Kestenholz (multi olympic medalist-woldcup winner -xgames winer.–and so on ..skier snowboarder and speed rider …google him guys it is worth it) ) most importantly a very down to earth soul rider and early bird ripper in alaksa))))) anyways…we stayed at his house and had a wonderful time with his very nice family (including a wife who is a bad ass base jumper) . we didnt get to ski as the weather was not friendly . Me and chris went on a drinking/smoking binje getting lost in interlaken-grindelwald. After being stuck in the road closure at col des montet for a few hours we decided it was time for more intoxication at the moo-fy in cham…next waking up was at the the top of the midi ridge trying to not fall down the north face due to lack of brain coordination. It is saturday morning and the light is magic. My brain cant figure out my camera. sucky. … I met with Nathan wallace production and a few friends and had 2 laps of gorgeous powder skiing…That is it… here bellow are a few shots but i mean…it is saturday….i am off. A video is on the way from wallace prod. better.

Midi opening day with ben briggs and christian cabanilla
It is always good to have someone under 25 years old you can send first in that situation…Ben Briggs was the kid today although …I had to clean the south ridge myself. And you always need a virgin , It was Chris Cabanilla first midi run, so… … Its good and wild out there!
ps: i posted a lot of pictures, not because they are good (it was white out) but so you can assess the amount of snow around…
Alone in the bin with christian cabanilla and ben briggs
send the kids first
and the virgin: Christian cabanilla looking good.
