 Full Moon Freeride
|
|
|
 |
|
Mother Nature lays down the law!
The weather forecast for this week is in itself looking
extreme;
A series of fronts bringing heavy snowfalls, violent
winds and dense cloud cover....not the best conditions
to hold a night time freeride event.
Therefore, time to pay the mountain some
respect

|
THE FULL MOON FREERIDE TIGNES
|
|
Tuesday the 10th of March, don’t miss out on the
event of the season! |
|
This event, the only one of its kind in France is being
organised by Evolution 2, in partnership with Oakley and CoreUpt. |
|
Under a perfect full moon, 20 of the best
French freeriders will confront each other in the Tufs
Couloirs. Led by the 4 times world freeride world
champion, Guerlain Chicherit, (Tignes is his home turf),
the riders will launch themselves into the steep, narrow
and untracked couloirs known as ‘the fingers’. |

Camp grows for the winter
|
|
Following the success of the Wilderness
Camp last season, work is well underway to add further
facilities to the site. This year we have added a second 60m2 Yurt to
enable us to accommodate around 100 adventurers
for our wilderness soirées. |
|
With aperitifs around the log
fire, the camp also features a wood-fired hot
tub, a Tyrolean death-slide, Blackfoot tribe
tepees, views across Mont Blanc and the Lac du
Chevril, the wilderness camp conjures up an
image of alpine tranquillity. |
