It seems this winter the snow won’t stop to fall of in Europe, after the Wangl i had one week to shoot with Arthur Longo and Gerome Mathieu, first we were suppose to go to st moritz and after few phone calls we figured out that it was way better to stay in Mayrhofen at least for few more days as we got fresh snow there.

We were lucky with the forecast it was suppose to be bad the 2 first days and we got a lot of sunny windows so we’ve been shooting kikers. The 3rd day it started snowing again and we found few spots in the middle of some avalanches protections walls.

To end up the week we wanted to go to Arlberg as we heard they’ve got a lot of snow there, so in the morning we packed all our stuff and drove 2 hours. We went strait to a spot next to the road to shoot some pillow lines and drops in the forest.

The next day we went to Sonnenkopf which is at the other side of the pass and as we arrived there in the morning we met 4 other crews that had the same plan than us.

I didn’t think that end of march it could be that much snow, i had powder up to my stomach while i was hiking to find some angles. It such a weird winter, the day after the sun came out and the air temperature skyrocket and the snow get so heavy that was hardly ridable.

check out what i get for my birthday present from all my friends, still didn’t see it in real, can’t wait!!!!!

Thank to David for bringing it from Australia.

Was my first time at the Wangl Tangl in Mayrhofen and i’m really stoked that i’ve been there, it’s such a great event, everything was perfect except the weather condition but we could have one good weather day and was enough to make few pictures.

While i was in Montafon, i had my 30th birthday the 2nd march, hard to accept that i’m already 30, time goes so fast, it’s been 10 years since i’ve made my first picture, but when i’m looking back, i don’t have any regret, i’ve just been enjoying every moment.

Enough for the psychology part, let’s talk about my birthday party. It was such a great party, every body was so much into having fun and getting wasted, my 2 friends Margot Rozies and Lisa Filzmoser that were in Montafon as well join us, the  AC bar just opened for us and few bottles of champagne were drunk.

Everything was perfect except a little slide on the dance floor that makes me fall down and twist my ankle, i knew strait away that was really bad but i just keep on enjoying the party, the day after i’ve got a nice surprice when i dicover my ankle, was twice bigger than normally. Hard to believe than with my job and what i’m doing every day i could get hurt on a dance floor, but shit happen and i’m not 20 anymore.

To close this event i wanted to thanks all my friends that offered me a surf board for this summer, it’s such a nice present, i can’t wait to see it and try it and crash with it….

And thanks to Paco for the party’s pictures.

I was suppose to make a trip in the Pyrenees but it was canceled last minute, i didn’t even had time to find an other option that i’ve got a phone call from Tyler Chorlton that asked me to come shooting with him and Marco Feichtner in Montafon. The day after i was in my car driving back to Austria.

In 2 weeks we only had few good weather days, the snow was good but it was really dangerous for avalanches so we hit a safty spot the first day, the next good weather day we shaped a kiker in backcountry and on Tyler’s first try half of the lending slide down but the session keep on going and they all got some tricks.

The last day was still dangerous and the guys hiked up a spot shaped a kiker and heard 2 cracks, all the area around the kiker was ready to slide down, so they decided not to hit it and was the best solution, no need to die for few shots.

This year was the second edition of the LA session in Les Arcs (france), last year unfortunatly i missed it and it was really good, a big and nice kiker with the perfect sunset view, so this year i decided to be there for sure.

Romain Grojean and Pacome Allouis are in charge of a big part of the event with the resort staff and they made a really nice event, check out the pics to see how it was.

Sorry that i haven’t been writing that much on my blog but i need to get use to it, i’ll try to be more diligent in the futur.
