Goal – We have come to Switzerland to make good Freeride, visit Fritschi, Black Diamond Europe, ski and have editors talk about skis, boots, bindings, trends and how the markets differ globally.

Highlights: Day 1 – Tour of the Fritschi factory with Stefan Burki and Stefan Ibach. Introduction of the new Diamir Eagle AT Binding. Touring on BD Voodoo and Guru skis with the new Diamir Eagle to the summit of the Gehrihorn. Trad fondue dinner.

Day 2 – Train to Davos. Ski off piste pow on new BD Megawatt and Justice skis in Pischa. We make good Freeride yah!

Day 3 – More ski testing on Rinerhorn and Jakobshorn. Davos Dan educates us to an emerging Freeride dialect that is similar to Swiss German. “Dude, he dry docked it and went Peggy Fleming-ing.” We witness the new school Howie-hawk and visit the legendary Wallhalla Telemark Freeride Bar.

Day 4 – A bit snowy and flat light for the absinthe-minded. We hit Parsenn on the all-mountain BD Zealot, Verdict and Kilowatt skis. Also visit the SLF – the Davos based Swiss Federal Institute for Snow and Avalanche Research.
