...when the lazy layabouts aren't protesting/rioting or gorging themselves on fromage it seems some of them get up to some funky stuff on skis.
Nice writeup on skipass (in French, d'oh) of the 7th Student Freeride last weekend. Prolly of more interest to maggots, some cool video too. Seems to be a nice level of riding, moreso in the finals, and some nasty crashes. I like the video editing too, nice.

the 280 to double-eject and ski launch was special...
I find that strobing editing style maddening. It's such a gimmicky way to try to make poorly shot video look interesting. Glad I'm not prone to seizures.

I turned it off after the first minute because I could feel my brain swelling in my head and ready to EXPLODE! Originally Posted by Tippster
