It's a well-known fact that there is currently nothing to much less snow in the Alps. And cat pictures aren't the last word in wisdom either. Which brings us straight to the topic of freerider gossip. If you like reading Skiing, Bunte, Gala, Bild or Spiegel Online, you've come to the right place.
Travis vs Cody, Cody vs Travis
Cody Townsend and Travis Rice don't really like each other these days. Cody steals Travis' line and Travis is pretty "pissed" about it, but acts like it only boosts his ego even more. You can read the whole drama here. This is how Travis drives, and this is how Travis drives:
TRE CIME TRE DONNE
Three women on the Transalp. From north to south, that means ascending in the north powder, descending on questionable snow on the south sides. New in freeride sports: bra manufacturers are sponsoring riders. Target group-specific marketing is the technical term for this.

The Shadow Campaign // Sun Dog
Conga is probably the most sought-after actor in the freeride business at the moment. But he's cute too, the little guy. Beautifully told, relaxed story by Ben Sturgulewski.

Playmobil Freerider
If Cody and Travis are already battling it out like this, isn't it time to find other heroes? How about these guys from Playmobil? Seem to be hard on the gas
