We should celebrate, says this social media. Alternatively, it suggests that Muslims are to blame for everything. Presumably also for the general lack of snow and the bad winter. After all, there used to be fewer Muslims here and the winters were better. We see a clear correlation here! Sounds like bullshit? Well, it could be. Let's go with option one and celebrate skiing. But the snowboarders aren't allowed to join in. We're taking that much freedom to exclude this fringe sport this week... They're just stupid too! #ThisWeMayNOTSay #FACT #ACHTUNGSATIRE
Bails from the Road
MSP's best of, so to speak. Makes you want to go skiing, at least we do. Fortunately, snow is soft. Most of the time, anyway. Actually, the softness of the snow when you fall is the real reason why we love powder so much, isn't it? Unfortunately not embeddable, you'll have to click here.
Hot Dog: The Movie
El Classico: We think it should be compulsory for every skier to ski at least two days a season on 80s skis and in full equipment. That's when you really learn and you're much deeper into the material and feel the snow much more. Maybe that will become the new trend! We already have tight pants and checked shirts...
Across the Sky
A presumably new highline world record was set in the Utah desert. Beautiful pictures and 500 meters of rope is also quite an achievement. We ask ourselves, what do you actually do as a slackliner when you get a little hungry? Or thirsty? Or have to pee?

Oil + Water
If there's anyone here who likes jumping around, please do. A whole 26-minute movie of it. Don't let anyone say we're against minorities.

Sierra Quitiquit: How Did I Get Here Official Trailer
The woman with probably the most interesting surname in the freeride modeling scene is releasing her own film. "Woohoo" scream the Instagram followers and post their pathetic lunch even more diligently! #vegan #eathealthy These are probably the same followers (with gender star, we don't want to exclude the male followers!) that this crybaby from last week had - for those who don't know: 19-year-old Instagrambitch er -model complains tearfully about the superficiality of the social media that she uses and that have made her famous, only to continue to push the same drawer, but now new with eco. What I actually wanted to write: It's always amazing how bad you have to be at skiing if you look "good". At least with make-up. #thiswillbeallowed #oneoftheseresponsibilitieswouldonlymakeyou feel insecure

Snowflake
If you were skiing in Engelberg at some point before the big freeride hype, you know him for sure. Snowflake. Hihihi, funny guy. Somewhat idiosyncratic skiing style, somewhat idiosyncratic person. But he still drives into the Steinberg faster than you! Another nice video sponsored by DPS.
