Chamonix Patroller - Freeski TV #17

We check in with the Salomon team for one last time this season and take a look forward at what is coming up in season 4 of Salomon Freeski TV. It’s been a winter of ups and downs, but one thing is sure… we’ve had a lot of fun along the way. Rapper, AllStar, lays down another original track for the final episode of season 3.

Cody Townsend and Chris Rubens meet up in the BC interior to spend a week chasing each other through the powder-filled gulches of Revelstoke. This episode is filmed entirely from the perspective of two helmet cams.

He’s a champion, legend, and master of the Big Mountain scene, but Kaj Zackrisson is best known as the happiest skier in world. In this episode, Kaj fills us in on his past, what scares him, and a future full of skiing.

Back in October 2009, Salomon and Freeskier magazine launched a contest asking skiers to submit video of their backyard jib set-ups. The prize: Having the Salomon Team move into your house and session your set-up for the weekend. Hilden, Nova Scotia will never be the same!

If you think Freeskiing is a new sport, think again. Mike Douglas sounds off in a Rick Mercer-style rant about the History of Freeskiing, proving that the recent rise of boardsports has a lot less to do with skiing’s popularity than most people think. This is a must-see episode for every skier.

Mark Abma, Chris Rubens, and Eric Hjorleifson head down to Patagonia, Chile. The Mission: To climb and ski the lines on the inside of the crater on the Puyehue, Volcano. This is the most epic episode of Salomon Freeski TV yet

Charles Gagnier and Kaya Turski meet up with Marek Doniec in his homeland of Poland. Their arrival was timed perfectly with the worst streak of weather Poland saw all winter. Forced to the streets, they spent 10 days searching for urban features while being chased by the Polish police. One of our best shows of the year.

Kaj Zackrisson, Mark Abma, and Mike Douglas go to Monterosa, Italy in the middle of the snowiest winter in 25 years. While the locals were kept busy trying to keep their roofs from collapsing, the crew shredded uncrowded and untracked powder for 2 weeks straight.
