7days pre WC






3 meters of light fluffy to 1 meter of variable bullet proof snar is hard on the psyche. Luckily with some clear sky and an expresso at 2100 meters life starts to get better as you look around at all the big objectives!!

For the week before worlds we spent an amazing 4 days skinning right from the doors of Gastof Winnebach!





We headed directly up behind the hotel and as we anticipated the conditions were in our favor for hitting some bigger lines. Impossible to ignore a beautiful coular off a 3200 meter peak we spent the rest of the day checking that off our list.
As the week progressed we enjoyed some great expresso assisted touring and finished with a bang skiing a very aesthetic peak topping out at 3500 meters.


















Now we find our selfs in Claut Italy racing the world championships. With one race down and a good result (16th in the teams race) we are looking forward to a full week of pushing our limits and continuing to close the gap with the euros!
