VIDEO: Tof Henry Freerides The Aiguille du Midi North Face

Up until a few weeks ago, Chamonix, France had been having what locals were calling the worst winter in 20 years. Luckily, April and May delivered a series of healthy spring storms that brought a few meters of that sticky icky to plaster the area’s icy north faces. With lines finally filling in enough to plausibly ski them, locals like Tof Henry got to get their freeride wiggles out. It’s hard to explain truly how gnarly a descent like skiing the North Face of the Aiguille du Midi is – especially in a low tide year - but for Tof it’s just another powder run.
