Back country Kicker in Chamonix
3rd February, Chamonix
We set of from Morzine to go hit a powder jump in Chamonix, there was me, Scott Mcmorris, Johno Verity, James Stentiford, Stu Monk who was filming and Dan Milner taking photos.
It was a great session as it was my first proper powder jump. We all set of hiking from one of the chairlifts, but can’t say where as it’s a secret place! But it was a great hike and when we got to the spot we started building, at first it was windy and rubbish visibility.
When we were half way through building it became clear sky’s and sunny, perfect conditions for getting great shots.
When we started hitting the jump I had a couple of bad falls but it was still loads of fun, after that I got the hang of it and started landing some tricks. Johno and Scott were both killing it and I learnt a lot from everyone there and cant wait to do it again, which will be pretty soon.
We finished around 5 in the afternoon and headed back down one of the shoots that lead’s down into Chamonix. It was a great day and it was a great experience. Now off to Munich!
