Saturday I went to la clusaz to ski and watch the Candide Thovex invitational. It was pretty cool but got old fast. Anyway, it is a pretty cool ski resort and the Aravis mountains are sick. Here are some jib pix. Oh and I rode up behind candide The dude smoked two faties on the way up no wonder he flies.
Pretty fun day, followed by couloir des cosmiques yesterday, and some vallee blanche today, tomorrow I might rest.

Damn, that quarter pipe below looks sketchy. They should do a ring of fire on that cut out.

I don't think that was any big revelation, even if you didn't know everyone just assumed.

He was so mellow that he crashed yesterday on a huge jump. A broken verterbrae (L1). He was supposed to go in chirurgy today. Everything seems ok and he's expected to fully recover.

"Typically euro, french in particular, in my opinion. It's the same skiing or climbing there. They are completely unfazed by their own assholeness. Like it's normal." - srsosbso
