Head to Chamonix

Even though the West Coast is gearing up for some more snow, let’s face it, it has been a low tide year thus far in North America. Which is why many of our friends are heading to Europe this spring. You should too…

We fully endorse this trip and approve this message…

Chamonix Update 2

Our good friend Dean Decas has been getting the goods in Chamonix, France. Last week he sent us an update with him shredding pow and chilling with Seth Morrison, and the other day he sent us additional eye candy. Here is Deano living it up in Europe, and shredding on his new Black Crows Skis, pretty rad! – Erme

Behind the Scenes: “The Ordinary Skier”

Words: Erme Catino
Video: Bjarne Sahlen

A few weeks ago our friend and X-Team Member Dean Decas was at Skiershop – remember that X-Team crew… John and Dan Egan, Dean Decas, and Rob, Eric, and Adam DesLauriers.  He and I were speaking about Chamonix, where he resides during the winter, and he mentioned that his friend was skiing/guiding with the Oakley crew filming for Seth Morrison’s new movie “The Ordinary Skier.”

Dean is always excited to talk about skiing, and hearing about the crew’s run down the North Face of the Aiguille du Midi, I was super stoked to see it – though wanted more after seeing the teaser for Seth’s new film.

Here is a video filmed by Bjarne Sahlen regarding the crew’s run down the Col du Plan, and it gives a sneak peak of what “The Ordinary Skier” is all about.  I personally can’t wait to see this movie!
