A few pictures instead of a few thousand words
I wanted to sum up the last couple of months succinctly, and looking through the photos I was planning to put in here I realised that they tell the story pretty well themselves....
- Back to Chamonix! My first European ski home
- The Chamonix competition venue. I skied fall line from the start point even though I had a bruised ankle bone and the flu, still managed to come 10th!
- Film trip to east Tirol, lot of snow there!
- Dropping in at the competition in Axamer Lizum
- Flipping my last air in the Axamer Lizum competition, this photo was all over the German and Austrian media!
- Was great to win the competition at Axams since it's my adopted home resort here in Austria, thanks Pete and Tom for bringing the NZ flag!
- The next comp was also local, on the same venue as the FWT was, but I managed to backflip one of the biggest cliffs this time!
- Really happy to land this one
- I came 2nd and won best trick
- On top a my line on the film trip to Switzerland
- Skiing my line, I skied fall line from here onto the shelf with the compulsory air into the opening fan, photo by Mickey Troja/Whiteroom Productions
- Back to Austria for another comp, but the snow was melting fast so we had to get creative
- I had a good time skiing that line
- Back to Switzerland for filming this mouth watering face
- Unfortunately this is how it finished though, my friend Raphy broke the crest of his pelvis in a fall and had to get helicoptered out. Thanks to our local friend Lukas for all his help!
- Since then we've been enjoying spring park jibbing in the sun :)
