SKI & SNOW Ski and Snow are quite a new passion of mine. I started skiing in 2003, when I got drunk at Straja and went to the slopes and throwed myself on my skis down the slopes. I realised then that there is nothing to worry about, speed is your best friend. I am addicted since then. I have hundreds of hours of skiing, specially on the slopes of Mogosa, which is my favourite slope. In 2004 I bought my first Monoski, that I used all the 2004/2005 and 2005/2006 seasons. It was quite usefull since it made me ski with my feet close. Now I am a great monoski fan, that I recommend to anyone who wants something different and very pleasant. More information on the pages of the French Monoski Association and the monoski directory pages. Also in 2004 I started to go on ski touring, an activity that fits well with my passion for mountains. Starting this year I decided I have to learn freeride. That's why I limited myself to a single ski equipment that I use all the time, on the slopes, on touring and on freeride. Now I use: Movement Demon Freeride Skis (116-77-106/179) with Diamir Explore bindigs and Nordica TR10 boots. For monoski I had two boards, a Rossignol Extrem and a Head Evolution (the last one in the monoski jump picture below), but both were destroyed at Poiana Brasov resort. I only have now a home modified alpine snowboard (that is called a monoboard). I plan to buy a new one next season, from Duret or Snowshark. Below you'll see some pictures of me skiing, monoskiing and touring. |
