    We were playing around with the idea of wearing the head mount as a g-string (I know sounds bizarre) to get waist level shots front and back. Its not much use for anything else anyway.

    That could be painful if you take an awkward fall!:D

    Back in the trees again, slowly building up a collection of videos for a longer video. Crazy amounts of snow here at the moment as well as more on the way tomorrow up to 80cm.

    No carvers, piste was very quiet and he decided to pick up a bit of speed, there was no piste marker so he kept going straight instead of around to the right. He realised the mistake straight away and tried to turn and break but he went airborne on the ungroomed snow and wiped out. Grip of his pole hit im in the face/goggles. The inner lens of the goggles was cracked in the impact his nose got a fair whack hence the blood and a bit scraped and burst a blood vessel in his eye. He went down and got checked out and then got on with the rest of the trip.

    That run down into the valley from about 8 minutes on looks like so much fun!


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,208 ✭✭✭Fattes


    Northern Monkey; its actually two different runs, first one from the Tet DU Balme in Le Tour chamonix down to Switzerland and the second is down the other side to get the train back to Chamonix.
