Freeriders Jonas Monnin and Sébastien Varlet are adopting an original approach to mountaineering. They prefer to walk above the ski resorts, wearing their big downhill ski boots. This allows them to ‘’charge‘’ on the way down, maximising power and precision thanks to big bindings and skis built for speed. Compared to skitouring, this approach redefines freeride.
I freerider Jonas Monnin e Sébastien Varlet adottano un approccio originale alla montagna. Scelgono di salire a piedi, sopra le aree sciistiche, con i loro grandi scarponi da sci alpino. Questo consente loro di ‘caricare’ in discesa, massimizzando potenza e precisione grazie a grossi attacchi e sci progettati per la velocità. Rispetto allo skitouring, questo approccio ridefinisce il freeride.
