COMMENCAL CLASH Skis at the Freeride World Tour

He says,

“I was the forerunner for the FWT in Arcalis and it was crazy! It was a great experience, having the privilege to test the blank face before everyone else and also being here, in my home resort. The confidence that the organisation and competitors give to the forerunners is incredible, because our feedback can change everything... The atmosphere at 6am, and climbing a steep couloir at the front, it was a first for me! It was awesome, the feeling of being on a mission, of being an important cog in a dream event.

The sunrise was awe inspiring and a very beautiful day followed. I know these mountains perfectly. It's my home and I know when the weather will hold and that the 20cm of fresh snow that fell two days earlier will hold until midday. It had the air of a good day!
