Terminator Is Back

Tuesday, March 30th, 2010

There’s currently a park shooting going on at Novapark. Filmer Clemens Prankl is here- its a lot of fun to shoot with him. He already tested his special tripod in the Schrunser “city”-it looked like Terminator on a rampage! (:

ViVa La France

Saturday, March 27th, 2010

Right now I´m in Chamrousse (France), there is the “Intercrew Invitational”. It´s like a contest with crews from different magazines. I´m here with the Snowboarder MBM.
Weather sucks, so today is internet time. :) Yesterday was actually pretty good- we shaped a snow wallride and had a good session. At first René Schnöller shooted some tricktips and afterwards we went for some single shoots with appr. 30 french riders- Spotsneakers!! (: All in all the day was crazy for me because I had a deja-veu all day long, that was really strange!

Talk soon..

…for this year!

Today I speeded up to Arlberg with the Volcom guys. I think we got the best powder of the season- 60 cm of fresh snow! I still don´t wanna believe it but I think that was the last good pow day?! ): Hopefully not..! Anyways we had a lot of fun and got some good shots.

Back Again

Tuesday, March 9th, 2010

Yesterday evening I finally arrived at home. I´m a little bit disapointed about the snow condition here- thought it´s way more! Anyway, I´m glad to be here and survived our flight from Paris to Zurich. (: This pilot was soo sketchy, I think he was drunk or something like that.

I keep you updated

Last Day In Japan

Sunday, March 7th, 2010

Today is the last day of our Japan trip. All in all it was amazing to see such a different culture, soo much snow, friendly people and probably the best crew!  The only bad things for me were sometimes the food and the worst was the snow, I think you can´t get more unlucky?! We made the best out of it and finally get some good shots- hopefully :)

I just had a little lifestyle shoot with Lorenz in our typical japanese hotel.  Now Iam really looking forward for tomorrow- home sweet home Iam coming!

Talk soon

South-North-South

Thursday, March 4th, 2010

Yesterday we arrived after a 5 hours drive from Asaidaki to Niseko. Last weekend there was the Toyota Big Air in Sapporo, really impressive! My Swiss tripmates did well and finally Gian-Luca got 7th and Markus 12th!

The hope of better snow in Niseko was gone pretty soon. We decided to shoot the first spring kicker this season…I had to go for the first track- went to short and punched my knee in to the face, so I was out for this session. Gian-Luca had the same bad luck as me. He made a double inverted bs 10 insteat of a bs7 and hurt his back- also out. Markus did some super nice tricks and I tried my luck as a photographer.
