Videos of the Week #19 2020/21 | Le grand finale

Small Bec, big show!

by Sebastian Müller • 03/26/2021

Without anticipating the ContestHappening too much, the Verbier Xtreme must be briefly mentioned here. It is the annual highlight of our scene, and its date at the end of March also marks the peak of climatological snow depths. The search for powder is becoming increasingly difficult. But as you can see in the latest conditions reports, it's still well worth it!

Verbier Xtreme 2021

On the small Bec and of course without spectators, but with great action, commitment and style. A terrific show!

Jacob Wester

We've seen far too little of him this year! He's hiding in the Swedish forests. Of course, we have a pandemic, so that makes sense.

FWT Fieberbrunn from Markus Eder's perspective

It's a shame not to have seen him on the tour this year. Get well soon and we hope, as with many things, for next year!

Classics

TGR and Ian in La Grave! The season will certainly go on a little longer there.

Find of the week

Aurelia in Poland in the Tatra Mountains. Entertaining, likeable and even with a ski jump!

Videos of the Week #18 2020/21 | Alpine Policy

The omniscient algorithm also keeps offering me Jan Böhmermann. In his latest piece of satirical investigative journalism, he exposes the ignorance and corruption of the Tyrolean cable car industry, elegantly drawing analogies of failure in the event of a disaster, from the gondola fire in Kaprun to the Corona Cluster (I & II) in Ischgl.
Videos of the Week #17 2020/21 - Chamonix Special

Sebastian Müller • 03/12/2021

CHAMONIX: Mecca, place of longing and birthplace: of alpinism, steep face skiing and many other types of mountain sports. Following on from the article about a new first ascent, today we are looking at films about the ski culture from Chamonix, which is sometimes fraught with high consequences, always enchanted with great panoramic aesthetics and sometimes refined with fun and joy.
Videos of the Week #16 2020/21 | Reloads, home runs and tributes

Sebastian Müller • 03/05/2021

As far as I know, we haven't had any fatal accidents involving professional freeriders since last year's tribute edition. That's nice, but it doesn't matter, because unfortunately people without celebrity status also die in the mountains, without a fan community to mourn them. Nevertheless, we remember Andreas and JP once again. There's also a re-make of Mount Ushba and Jeremie's diaries. We are longing for a comeback of winter with lots of snow and new movie material.
