Verbier Xtreme Worldtour Final

Thursday, March 25th, 2010 @ 12:17 | WINTER NEWS

For the Final of the Freeride Worldtour we all did meet in Verbier to ride the famous bec de rosses. At the first try last saturday weather moved in and just one skier was missing to make the 2/3 cut to have a final result. the decission was made to go for a new contest day which will bring new results for all male snowbaorders and skiers. After having a strong run on saturday it took me a full day to motivate myself again to go up and try to even do better, knowing that i still had chances to steal the Title of Xavier. The conditions were great and it was most probably the best show with the highest level ever on a freeride comp. What a day for the 15th anniversary.

I did my `perfect run´ on the bec and came third behind Xavier and Cyril, that means i ended the Season as Overall second behind Xavier and before Matt Annetts.

i did my personal `dreamline´ on the bec: starting on the sharp ridge between light and shadow, than drop into the center over hollywood...
