Once again, the fine artistic alternative for video material is highlighted: vimeo. Not everything is free here, but certainly none of it is for nothing. Well, I still can't get around youtube completely. You can expect a nice mix of amateur recordings and philosophical works, and yes, you see right, we have Japow on offer!

When I cross the Alps twice by public transport at Christmas time, transporting one or two pairs of skis, I can only do it so comfortably because I have a ski bag with wheels. A task that looks like Sisyphus suddenly becomes child's play.

We roam the familiar channels and are surprised at how well they continue to deliver: Mountain art and agony, how to and charm and dialect.

We elegantly bridge the barren heat period between the years with the annual scouting of the Alpine clubs' YouTube channels. These show a lot about how they see themselves. Some are in their infancy, neglected and antiquated, and some are packed with fancy content that our modern society so desperately needs.

Come one, come all, there's going to be plenty of presents! We have great entertainment from the most prominent protagonists and TGR to offer. Find your present!

Unlike the weather: the video precipitation accumulates on the www. The ski video contributions are currently very considerable. It's easy to fill the issue. We particularly enjoy the female influence and let them take the lead!

Marco Milanese is an alpine mountain guide, a modern adventurer and certainly a local legend in Friuli-Venezia-Giulia. The variety of his mountain activities is astonishing, based upon alpine climbing, reaching towards highlining and base jumping, but also incorporating skitouring, freeriding and speedflying. In this interview we try to find out about Marco and how he manages such a variety of mountain activities, how he deals with risk and what he was doing last winter.

Today we present a belt made from ski fur: is this GOTW a must-have or an accessory? Let's find out together!

Mon cheri, mon amour! C'est tres jolie, c'est trop bon! Jeux parlez francais comme un vache espanyole! Je suis desole, jeux ne pas compris! C'est vrai, we dedicate today to our favorite neighboring country, the one with the high mountains and the beautiful but incomprehensible language! A bientot!

The familiar Scandinavian protagonists, namely one each from Norway, Sweden and Finland, characterize this episode. We get to see the adventures of late spring 2021 here, matured and freshly baked, and the parallels are as obvious as they are interesting. They all had to deal with the same dangerous avalanche conditions, and they all solved them in their own way. We present: a big bubble of Scandinavian happiness!

Start of the season! A warm welcome! Obviously: all the well-known characters and collectives are already busy publishing. Lots of recent footage of last winter's snow is ready and we almost feel late! But don't worry, we won't be tactically holding back here. No, we're burning off the Hollywood fireworks so that we can devote ourselves to fine alternative works in the future! With this in mind, let's celebrate the start of the season! Because...

There's still a bit left and in Chamonix anyway, but the search for powder is becoming increasingly difficult and it's clear that it's high time to start thinking about the approaching summer! So, our climbing projects for 2021: Big Island Assis or King Capella? Or maybe wrestling in Senegal? Or a highline on a ski tour? Or do you still have high alpine ambitions? Firn, powder or steep faces? Or roadgaps like Markus? In any case, summer will come and is somehow already here.
