In our 4th episode of Deeper Unplugged, Jeremy Jones meets up with Xavier De Le Rue in Bruson, Switzerland. They're plan is to shred a 3000m vertical drop zone in the French Alps called the Swiss Face. They pull an all-night hike and arrive at the base at 5am. Watch as they pull through their fatigue and hike a super sick line.
After a long break due to lots of fun powder riding, Snowfix returns to the French Alpes for season 5!
In this episode:
- we launch our winter-long seasonnaire battle
- we show you how to build your own rockered skis
- we scour the web for the most interesting video in ‘web watch’
- we ask the pros “If we made a statue in your honour, what pose would you have?”
