2-säsongs-edit med Jacob Wester

Chamonix är för de flesta förknippat med branta åk, långa rep och dubblar isyxor. Mellan de branta bergen menar Jacob Wester att han hittat den bästa platsen i världen för att bygga BC-kickar. 

Nowhere on Earth have I found such good terrain for building backcountry jumps like in Chamonix, France. Between the jagged peaks with its legendary freeride and steepskiing lines up high, and the dense forest below, lies a vast playground of rollers, windlips and moraines. Here, the snow stays cold and untracked during high pressure systems, a perfect place to enjoy ourselves between storms.

This is a collection of clips gathered during the 2019 and 2020 winters, stuff that either didn’t make the cut in bigger productions or that were forgotten on hard drives or posted on instagram. No jumpturns, no lines, just plain old backcountry freestyle action. Hope you will enjoy!
