Steep and Style

by Sebastian Müller 12/25/2020
You can't reinvent the ski, unless your name is Sean McConkey. All striving for powder and weightlessness has its origins in steep face skiing. So in these hopefully reflective days for all of us, let's go back to those roots. After all, whatever we do in the mountains: style means everything.

The way, the motivation and inspiration, the responsibility, consideration and sacrifice, and also style. All this means the achievement of getting from the mountain to the valley on skis! And just as we are happy about our wide, rockered skis, the dances of the old masters in thin, un-waisted slats seem all the more significant.

A pretty close-up experience of a couloir in Chamonix, unfortunately with overdramatic music and incomprehensible commentary.
