Every new episode of this coming original serie will take you to a new amazing spot following 10 of the Best European Snowboard freestyle Riders during their winter season.
In addition to the Web Episode, a movie will come out in September 2013.
This is their “Drôle de Vie” (funny life) looking for the best spots and chasing snow!

The French crew is growing this year, not only in terms of riders but also in term of production. Proof is this first webisode released yesterday: 

This season, Almo’s big daddy Morgan Lefaucheur and his crew of shredders - Sylvain Bourbousson, Victor Delerue, Mathieu Crepel, Felix Carlier, Thomas Delfino, Laurent Duhalde, Fred Couderc, David Livet and Victor Daviet – will travel the world in search of new original spots. Lots of webisodes to come out all winter, plus a full movie this fall

Check them out!

Lefaucheur and Tanon in Quebec.

The Harakiri dudes are back with a sick, slick, witty teaser for their upcoming movie, La Tournee du Patron. Have a look.

For those unfamiliar with la langue d’amour, the title roughly translates to ‘Owner’s Round’ or ‘On The House’, as in when the bar owner fronts the drinks. So there.

Riders: JJ Roux, Enzo Nilo, Tom Tom Gerin, Thomas Delfino, Victor Delerue, Victor Daviet, Ben Thomas Javid.

This third chapter is a real blast! The Swiss recipe is quite simple but dramatically effective: pick seven fresh and motivated riders: Elias Elhardt, Rémi Lamazouère, Martin “zizi” Seiler, Victor Delerue, Darius Heristchian, Emilien Badoux and Mati Radaelli; sprinkle them with sick pow lines, huge backcountry sessions, and pour the final touch to spice it up: a perfect heli trip that will remain in some minds for a while…

“I remember how stoked we were as our heli took off and headed directly to some untracked mountains. We were like small kids in a toy store before Christmas. We had such a blast that day, and I can still see Olivier (our filmer) puking out of the helicopter. Fun day with friends, powder and sun back home, that’s how snowboarding should be. Good times…”, remembers Martin Seiler.

And Elias Elhardt adds: “The Heli Trip was a crazy experience. Doing this for the first time in my life was a dream come true. I will never forget the moment when we took off and flew very close to those big mountains to scope out lines. The snow was perfect and the options endless. It was good to share this great experience with my team buddies Darius and Seili. Being on my snowboard, going down my line, I forgot about everything and only felt the pure joy of riding. In the end, every one of us had two super long and fun lines. Seili was ripping his spot!I guess dedication and passion for something enables us to do things that would normally never be possible…!”

There’s also a bit of wallbanging and road gapping from France at the end too. Pretty sweet cut. Check out how they got on…

For this first trip of the movie, Elias Elhardt welcomed his team buddies Janne Lipsanen and Victor Delerue to his home in the Allgäu and made them taste the sweet sound of the German powder. He was stoked to be able to show them his territory. “This year I had the honor to welcome the Rip Curl crew in the house I’ve lived in since I was born and show them my home resort. Throughout the shooting, I saw the mountains from a different perspective and also discovered spots I didn’t known before. One of my best memories was when we all jumped in the ice cold fountain in front of my house. That was so much fun! You should have seen the suffering face of Janne. Victor and I could not stop laughing”.
And the guys enjoyed it as well. Victor said: “It was the most welcoming trip of the winter. We stayed at Elias’s huge and very old  wooden house, surrounded by a lot of fresh snow. He opened the door and welcomed us like we were home, it was warm and friendly. My memories?  Big smiles and stiff legs.” And Janne was stoked too: “Elias’ home resort was awesome for powder riding. It is a small resort with only one lift but full of deep powder and nice spots.  I felt like we were in Japan, with lots of forest riding and powder sessions to be had… just perfect!”

Enjoy.
