Chamonix Video Report: 4th February 2010

Epic conditions for the Chamonix leg of the Nissan Freeride World Tour

Epic conditions for the Chamonix leg of the Freeride World Tour which was won by local, Candide Toevex with a fluid, explosive, crowd-pleasing run.

Special mention to James Stentiford (not Steniford) the English snowboarder came 3rd which was a massive achievement.

We’re expecting 25cm of snow over the next 3 days, with the freezing level staying around 1000m so conditions looking good. I didn’t manage to get down to Les Houches and get some footage of the new DC park so that’s definitely on the agenda for next week, but you can read all about it and watch a video in the news section.

Friday sees the arrival of the Forreign Beggars at the Podium for the biggest Winter Sessions party yet.. See you all there.
