  • The line is called Voie Fontaine and its a climbing route, it was first skied by Rémy lé cluse and emmanuel ratouis on the 7th of may 1998. And since then it has been repeated less than 5 times.
    Skiing these big lines is a whole new world for me and the experience Leo and the other people of Chamonix have is just mind blowing!
    Thanks to Leo for taking me on this wild adventure!

    It was hard editing all this footage from our 9h trip and for it to make sense. But, it's raw and hopefully you get the feeling of how exposed this line was.

      lol, to be fair most of the base scratches and stuff can be fixed with a little ptex etc... though the edges are a bit harder to repair.

    That is one of the most technical and survival snowboarding lines I’ve ever seen in my entire life. You really put your skills on display here. Also, I’m curious how your base looks after all of that scraping!

    Incredible video, so good to see it from your perspective like that. I'm curious about those anchors, were you just passing the rap rope around the installed rope / cordelette? Doesn't it create a lot of wear in the anchor rope when you pull it down?

    • @kriskopa
      @kriskopa  2 місяці тому +1

      Yes it does.. We changed some, and put a couple of new ones. But we also did one from a really old one....

    Strike 3…kristor is a better rider and has bigger balls then me but he just use the pick side of his piolet to dig out a corded anchor that was frozen.
    Uhhh, hello!
    I would highly highly recommend not riding with him on any lines of consequence…he doesn’t have the fundamental mountain travel safety down.
    However he does seem like a nice guy and is a great snowboarder
