Laax, January 2008 and a blue sky. A great day to start shooting at the Dutch Champs.
Don’t you just love it when a season starts like this… arriving in snowy conditions with a new Landrover Freelander 2. Set on wintermode… no chains necessary while some dumbass 4×4 just slides off the road in front of you because he has shitty traction control and way too much speed.
Then, you wake up to a day of grey which is an excellent excuse for a decent sleep in. Nothing beats that after a day’s driving from Holland (when you just returned from an alomst continuous trip in 35 degree weather in Thailand and Egypt the weeks before). Coffee and croissants, one can survive on a diet like that!
But we all know that after grey come blue and we hit it right on in a surprisingly quiet Les 2 Alpes, France. A resort mostly know for it’s incredibly shitty lift system and long walks because crucial parts of the area go uphill instead of down.
Anyway, the Dutch opening has landed here so we have to make the best of it… not that hard with about 40cm fresh and a bluebird. You just forget the stress we had making these (a quiet Les 2 Alpes is still busy as hell so the good bits are tracked in nanoseconds) and enjoy. Hope we all have plenty of this in 2008, it’s looking good already!
Everybody, all the best wishes!
