I recommend this documentary from the Swiss national TV about a former acrobatic skier, turned 60, who wants to do his last double backflip on skwal (hardcore alpine snowboard). There are english subtitles for the non french speakers. Wonderful! #ski #snowboard

The (K)night Rider, #snowboarding #bynight

Another way to summarize my winter holidays besides snow sports and winter landscapes.

Last thursday night I did some night boarding in les Diablerets, Switzerland. I highly recommend it if you have never tried it, the ambiance is magic! #snowboarding #skiing #bynight #snowboard #ski #snowboardingbynight #skiingbynight #switzerland #LesDiablerets #pov

April skiing in February… A short edit of my last video. #skiing #skitouring #backcountryskiing

A video from a backountry tour I made last wednesday. Ski touring - La Floriette - Les Diablerets - Wonderful Sun, crusty snow... #skitouring #backcountryskiing #LesDiablerets #Switzerland

Full version of that slimy rooty trail I posted a short about yesterday. Riding was at a slow pace as I was discovering the trail and the conditions were humid. #mtb #mountainbike #mountainbiking #mtblife #switzerland The trailforks link is in the video description on youtube.

A short video of a greasy and shaky rooty trail that I have been riding last October. Nothing fancy as it was my first ride ont this trail and it was super slippery. #mtb #mountainbike #mountainbiking #roots #wetroots

Today the activities were somewhat different, but kind of the same! #sledding and #snowboarding by night.

Backcountry skiing today. A small summit named La Floriette above Les Diablerets. I went through the closed down resort of Isenau to get there. #skitouring #backcountryskiing #mountains #winter #LesDiablerets #Switzerland #saveIsenau

Post ride beer & magic scenery! #snowboarding #beer #scenery #afterski

Another day snowboarding. Warm boots and cold beer! It’s better this way than the other 🙃

Daily dose of swiss Chablais #scenic #mountains pictures that I took today while snowboarding in Les Diablerets and Villars. 1) Haute Pointe and Lion d’Argentine 2) Grand Muveran 3) Pointe des Savolaires and Dents de Morcles 4) Dents du Midi. #switzerland #winter #landscapes

Les Diablerets, north face, February 2019. Zoom in in the 3rd picture to find me hanging on a rope in the cliffs #skiing #skitouring #backcountryskiing

I am still hypnothized by this north face of les Diablerets, watching it after another day of snowboarding. I had the opportunity to ski down this face in February 2019. I’ll post some pictures of it later. #mountains #lesdiablerets #switzerland

Some snowboarding today 🙂! Les Diablerets #Switzerland #mountains

This short video illustrates the ingratitude of action cameras in showing the reality of the terrain difficulties… aka the GoPro effect! #actioncam #gopro #goproeffect #mtb #mtblife #mountainbike #enduro

Full length POV of that super fun steep trail in the western part of the swiss Jura mountains, from last September. It is not very long but you drop 600m in few minutes. I forgot to film one section but I have it in other videos. #mtb #mountainbike #mtblife #steep #trail #switzerland

A glimpse of another fantastic trail in my area. A steep loamer that starts with a cool rocky section. #mtb #mountainbike #mountainbiking #mtblife #steep #loamer #trail #enduromtb

The last movie from Alexis Righetti. When MTB stands for moutaineering biking, as always with this guy. Epic. #mtb #mountainbike #mountaineering

Memories from spring 2018, Aletsch glacier area, Switzerland. #skitouring #backcountryskiing #alps #Switzerland

This is the full POV run of that janky trail I posted a short video before. First third was a real mental struggle. I will be happy when I´ll be able to link all the features without stopping in that part. (I mumble in French but there are subtitles) #MTB #mountainbike #mountainbiking #Switzerland

A short ride this afternoon to enjoy the winter lights, to notice that the loggers destroyed a nice trail and to visit the other side of the beavers’ pond. #MTB #mountainbike #mountainbiking

A foggy dog walk this morning. The beavers look like they’ve been working hard. #forest #wildlife #beavers #switzerland

Does anyone had issues with Garmin Edge 530 battery life? Mine is not 2 years old and seems to be dying... Does'nt accept or hold the charge anymore. #mountainbike #mountainbiking #cycling #MTB #garmin

The jankiest trail I know in my area. I was definitely not in my comfort zone with this one. #MTB #mountainbike #mountainbiking #janky #trail #enduro

Dear #Bluesky, I settled my news feeds to accept artistic nudity, not hardcore porn, porn sites links, dick pics and leg spread ladies... My feeds ALL concern #mountainbiking and not other types of riding... If I wanted to watch that type of content it would not be on a 13+ age limit app.... WTF

From the same week-end of January 2023 as previously posted. I had worst days than this 🙃.

Seen in Denver, History of Colorado Center in 2023. #science #scienceisreal

January 2023, Ovronnaz, Valais/Wallis, Switzerland. Backcountry skiing with the buddies.
